Selena Gomez recently set social media abuzz with speculation about her relationship status when she was spotted wearing a gold ring on her left ring finger. The actress and singer, known for her role in *Only Murders in the Building*, was photographed leaving a Subway restaurant in Los Angeles on Thursday, and the plain gold band was visible as she managed her phone, a bag of chips, and her sunglasses.
The engagement rumors have been swirling for some time. Less than two weeks ago, Gomez, 32, drew attention when she started following CMG Weddings & Events on TikTok, a wedding planning service. As of Friday evening, she continues to follow the account, fueling further speculation about a possible engagement.
Earlier this month, Gomez also sparked chatter when she posted a mirror selfie on Instagram with Blanco, 36, in the background. In the photo, a pink heart emoji was strategically placed over her left ring finger, leading many fans to believe she was hiding an engagement ring. Some, however, suggested the emoji was concealing a vape she was holding.
Engagement rumors were further fueled by a tip shared by Deuxmoi, which claimed that Blanco had proposed at their usual beach house hangout, surrounded by friends. Despite these speculations, representatives for Gomez and Blanco have yet to comment on either the mirror selfie or the wedding planning follow.
In a May appearance on SiriusXM’s *The Howard Stern Show*, Blanco made it clear that he sees a future with Gomez. He expressed his desire to start a family with her, revealing that they discuss having children “every day” and envision marriage as part of their future.
Gomez echoed these sentiments in an interview with *Time* in May, noting how Blanco has changed her perspective on her life plans. She had previously considered adopting a child at 35 if she were still single by then, but Blanco’s presence has shifted her outlook.
The couple, who went public with their relationship in December 2023, have been together for just over a year. Gomez first praised Blanco on Instagram, calling him “the best thing that’s ever happened” to her. In July, she revealed that she was the first to say “I love you” in their relationship, underscoring the deep connection they share.
An insider told Entertainment Tonight that Gomez feels “very at home and at ease” with Blanco. They described Blanco as finding Gomez to be “brilliant beyond belief,” and noted that he admires her for being “extremely talented, genuine, sweet, and intelligent.”
As Selena Gomez continues to fuel engagement rumors with subtle hints and casual outings, fans and media are left wondering: is a formal announcement on the horizon for Gomez and Blanco? Only time will tell if the couple will officially confirm their engagement or if the gold ring will remain a tantalizing hint of what’s to come.
