Other friends who commented on Gomez's post with congratulations included Lily Collins, Shay Mitchell, Lil Nas X, and Suki Waterhouse.Blanco commented: “Hey wait... That's my wife."
The two had been friends for years but did not begin dating until 2023, Blanco said in an April interview with the Wall Street Journal. It's crazy to have a 'Clueless' moment where your partner is sitting right in front of you the whole time and you don't realize it and you're like, 'Wait, I'm in love,'” he explained.
Meanwhile, Gomez said of Blanco on Instagram: “He was the best thing that ever happened to me ....... He is absolutely everything in my heart.”
In May, Blanco sat down with Drew Barrymore on “The Drew Barrymore Show” and said of his then-girlfriend. She's the most genuine person. Everything is so perfectly real. It's like every day I wake up and I walk up to her, walking by the mirror ...... And then I look at myself and I think, 'How did I get here?' I think."[11
