Music producer Benny Blanco recently opened up about his engagement to actress and singer Selena Gomez. The couple started dating in 2023 and got engaged in December 2024.

Speaking on the Therapuss podcast hosted by Jake Shane, Benny shared how he plans to take a step back from work to focus on wedding preparations. “Honestly, I really want to take a little break. I’ve been working so much,” he told Shane.

He said he enjoys the simple moments with Selena. “I just want to lay in bed and forget what day it is because we’ve been in bed just watching stuff. Not usually, but with Selena, I can do it all day. She makes me want to hang out and cuddle, just watch things, eat food, and have the best time ever,” he added.

Wedding Will Be Simple and Relaxed

Benny mentioned that he and Selena will sit down this summer to start planning their wedding. When Shane jokingly said, “That wedding is going to be lit,” Benny replied with a smile, “It’ll be chill.”

Although fans are excited, Benny did not share the wedding date.

Benny Opens Up About Childhood Anxiety

In the same interview, Benny also got honest about his struggles with mental health during childhood. He talked about experiencing obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours.

“When I was a kid, I used to have this thing where I had to go ‘mmph.’ If I didn’t do it, I thought my parents were going to die,” Benny revealed.

He added that he still deals with similar habits today. “Now I have little things where I touch parts of my face or make a fake cough sound—literally hundreds of times a day. It’s involuntary,” he said.

Though he didn’t go into medical detail, his experiences echo what many people with obsessive-compulsive tendencies go through.
