After going through a rough phase, 32-year-old pop artist Selena Gomez has found her happy place with American record producer and songwriter, Benny Blanco. Gomez made her relationship with Blanco public last year.

However, unlike Gomez, some fans find it very difficult to accept that Blanco is the man of her dreams. As a result, a TikTok post insulted Blanco as the post read “She would never date Benny Blanco”. ‘She’ refers to Gomez’s past self.

Gomez didn’t let the insult slide and actually came forward and gave a reply that was enough to open everyone’s eyes. She commented on the TikTok post (via Buzzing Pop on X):

“Kinda makes me laugh because I was so depressed back then lol.”

As soon as she defended Blanco with her comment, many fans over the web came in support of her choice. Fans have agreed that Gomez genuinely looks comparatively happier with Blanco and hence there is no point bringing up old stuff.

There’s absolutely no doubt that Selena Gomez currently looks very lively and rejuvenated. However, this was not exactly the case when she was in her 20s, as she struggled both physically and mentally. 

Rolling Stone reported that in 2017, the singer got a kidney transplant after which the organ flipped itself causing unbearable pain to her. She would have lost her life if it was not for the team of doctors who operated on her immediately for almost six hours. 

Her mental state was no good either. Her painful separation from Justin Bieber in September 2018 affected her quite a lot. A lot of media publicity further messed up her psychological stability. She was also diagnosed with bipolar disorder which was the reason behind her dramatic mood shifts. 

Gomez herself confirmed that it was Benny Blanco who encouraged her to get a new start by being a man she could rely on for her happiness (via Billboard). Her statements on the relationship are clear indications that she has found a home in Blanco and that’s all that matters to her.
