Selena Gomez attended Sabrina Carpenter's packed concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Sunday night. However, a video taken at the event caused speculation that Gomez was single again. The video, posted on TikTok by a friend in Gomez's group, Connar Franklin Carpenter, stated, "when you're married at the Sabrina Carpenter show but your friends are single." This led some people to believe that Gomez and Blanco had quietly ended their relationship. (Franklin Carpenter has since removed the post but has uploaded another video of herself, Gomez, and their group enjoying the show.)
Without delay, Gomez took to Instagram to clarify the situation. She posted a video of herself dancing at Carpenter's show and tagged Blanco in the caption. Blanco responded flirtatiously, using lyrics from Gomez's 2015 song, "Hands to Myself." He wrote, "can't keep my hands to myself."
Earlier that day, Blanco had shared a photo of him and Gomez engaging in PDA, further confirming that their romance is still going strong. The couple has been together for over a year, and Gomez recently expressed her deep affection for Blanco during an interview with Vanity Fair. "I've never been loved this way," she gushed. "He's been a complete light in my life. He's my best friend, and I love confiding in him."
Gomez also emphasized that they do not feel pressured to get married. "We always ensure that we protect what we have, but there are no rules," she explained. "I want him to always be himself, and I always want to be myself." She added that when they do decide to tie the knot, she will not change her name. "I am Selena Gomez, and that's final."
