Selena Gomez recently took to Instagram to post an affectionate snapshot of her boyfriend Benny Blanco amidst circulating rumors involving her longtime friend and former assistant Theresa Marie Mingus. The picture shows Blanco engaging in a heartwarming moment with a family dog and his nephew, offering fans a glimpse into their private lives amid growing speculation online.
The rumors began surfacing when fans noticed Gomez unfollowed Mingus on Instagram. The last public appearance of the two together was during a birthday party on March 10. Adding fuel to the gossip fire, an old TikTok video resurfaced allegedly showing Blanco and Mingus dining together at a Los Angeles restaurant. Unverified fan claims also suggested that Mingus had been seen at Blanco’s residence during times Gomez was reportedly not around. However no photographic evidence supports these allegations.
A separate TikTok clip went further to accuse Benny Blanco of subscribing to Mingus’ OnlyFans account but again no verifiable proof has emerged to validate the claim. Fans also found it curious that Mingus posted about Blanco being named People’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ during the peak of these rumors. Currently both Blanco and Mingus still follow Gomez on Instagram suggesting no public fallout from the artist’s side.
Reactions on social media have been intense with fans sharing mixed emotions. While some expressed disbelief others commented humorously on the unfolding gossip. One user on X formerly Twitter speculated that the OnlyFans connection might have led to Gomez unfollowing her friend while another criticized Blanco humorously saying unattractive men are more likely to cheat.
Despite the online storm Gomez and Blanco appear focused on their relationship and creative endeavors. The couple recently dropped a collaborative music album titled I Said I Love You First… And You Said It Back. Promoting the album Gomez shared a behind-the-scenes video captioned “I love you now say it back! I Said I Love You First…And You Said It Back with @itsbennyblanco is out now along with the official music video for Talk.”
As the rumors continue to swirl Gomez’s Instagram story seems to send a clear message of affection and support toward her partner choosing to highlight their personal bond over digital drama.
