Selena Gomez has ignited a firestorm of speculation after stepping out in Los Angeles with a gold band on that finger. Yes, you know the one. And now, rumors are swirling faster than a Subway sandwich artist on a lunch rush: is Selena engaged to Benny Blanco?
The 32-year-old Only Murders in the Building star was spotted grabbing a quick bite at Subway in Burbank, casually sporting a gold ring on her left hand that had more sparkle than her freshly waxed SUV. With her signature brunette hair and a Selena Quintanilla Pérez T-shirt that screamed “I’m laid-back but still a superstar,” Gomez looked every bit the off-duty celeb. But let’s be real—the star of this low-key outing was that mysterious gold band.
And while Selena may have been in the mood for a $5 footlong, her fans were hungry for answers. What’s with the ring, Selena? Are you trying to tell us something?
This isn’t the first time Selena has thrown fuel on the engagement rumor fire. Earlier this month, she posted a mirror selfie that nearly broke the internet—not because of her stunning champagne-colored dress or her enviable shoe game, but because she strategically covered her left hand with some oh-so-conspicuous pink heart emojis. Now, why would she do that unless there was something sparkly to hide? Fans on social media went into full detective mode, with one tweeting, “Selena Gomez announcing she’s engaged by intentionally trying not to announce that she’s engaged.”
Others were quick to speculate, with one user writing, “If she has a gold band on her left finger, she’s probably already married.”
Selena’s relationship with music producer Benny Blanco has been the subject of much speculation and fanfare since it was confirmed last December. The pair have been playing the social media game like pros, sharing just enough of their romance to keep the fans hooked while maintaining an air of mystery.
Remember that time Selena flaunted a diamond ‘B’ ring on Instagram? Or when she wore a diamond ‘B’ necklace during her 32nd birthday celebration? It’s almost as if she’s leaving a breadcrumb trail of romance for her followers to piece together.
Adding more fuel to the engagement fire was a tip sent to the gossip site DeuxMoi claiming that Selena and Benny got engaged while “surrounded by friends at their usual beach house hangout” in August. If this anonymous source is to be believed, then Selena might have already said “Yes!”
What we do know is that the Rare Beauty mogul was spotted at LAX last week, keeping her left hand suspiciously hidden in her sleeve. Coincidence? We think not.
