Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are already laying the groundwork for their future family. The singer, 32, recently shared her excitement about the prospect of having children during the Monday, March 24 episode of the Jay Shetty Podcast.
Selena expressed her deep love for kids, revealing that she feels incredibly drawn to them and looks forward to the day she can become a mother.
Her fiancé, Benny Blanco, shared his own hopes, mentioning that he envisions their future children listening to their joint album, “I Said I Love You First.” This sentiment deeply resonated with Selena Gomez, who spoke passionately about her affection for children.
“I don’t know what the future holds, but I love kids. I have an 11-year-old sister that I absolutely adore,” Selena said, referring to her younger sibling, Gracie. “So absolutely, when that day comes, I’m beyond excited for it.”
Blanco, 37, offered additional insight into Selena Gomez’s personality, describing her as “the ultimate level of shy” in most social situations—except when children are involved.
“She immediately gravitates toward kids and engages in conversations with them for hours,” he said, attributing this to her background as a child star. “When you started out, you were just a kid yourself… You’ve shaped so many young people’s lives, whether it was through Barney or Wizards of Waverly Place.”
Selena Gomez previously told Time magazine that she had considered adopting if she hadn’t found a partner by the age of 35. However, with Blanco by her side, her perspective has shifted. “I can’t believe I get to marry my best friend,” Selena said, expressing gratitude for their relationship.
The couple, who maintained a close friendship for years before romance blossomed, officially confirmed their relationship in December 2023. Since then, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have embraced their love publicly, making their red carpet debut together at the 2024 Emmys. Their journey continues to inspire fans, as Selena Gomez and Blanco build a future filled with love, music, and dreams of a family.
