Selena Gomez shows off diamond ‘B’ ring on THAT finger after debuting Benny Blanco romance

Selena Gomez is fully flaunting her love for boyfriend Benny Blanco after revealing their romance on Thursday.

The actress, 31 – who has been secretly dating the music producer for six months – took to her Instagram Story to share a photo of herself wearing jewelry dedicated to him.

She had a diamond 'B' ring wrapped around her left ring finger.

The photo comes shortly after the Spring Breakers star furiously defended her boyfriend from fans who accused him of “shading” her in the past.

Fans were particularly upset about a resurfaced interview in which Benny appeared to call her a “cookie-cutter pop artist” while praising her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber.

“As you know, they say, 'This is my new single and here's my makeup line,'” he shared podcast host Zach Sang in 2020.

While that could easily be a joke for Gomez — owner of makeup brand Rare Beauty — she doesn't seem bothered by it.

When a fan slammed her as “corny” for sticking with him despite the shade, Gomez replied, “Lol yeah and he's still better than anyone I've ever been with.” Facts'

She also told another upset fan, who said Blanco has “cursed” the star, that “he's the best thing that ever happened to me.”

The Disney Channel alum closed it out with, “The end.”

But Gomez's answers didn't stop there.

One fan wrote a lengthy comment accusing Gomez of always choosing to date “crusty, problematic music men.”

They think she should pursue someone who is “a wealthy, educated, mature, handsome man who would treat her with love and respect and share the same values ​​and life goals.”

Gomez said the analysis of himself and Blanco was “so wrong.”

She then fired back at a rude troll who suggested she “couldn't get (a man) better” than the music producer if she wanted to.

“(LAUGHING EMOJI) I feel sorry for you,” Gomez wrote.

Selena vowed she would 'never be with af**boy again' – an apparent criticism of ex Justin – thanks to more than a decade of therapy.

Gomez said that if her fans “really care about me,” they will recognize that she is at her “happiest” right now.

“If you're not interested, feel free to say whatever you want. But I will never allow your words to rule my life. Someday,” she wrote.

'I'm ready. If you can't accept me at my happiest, then don't be in (my) life at all.”

Some wondered if Selena and Blanco's surprise romance was just a publicity stunt.

She insisted: “Never troll.”

Gomez then said she planned to leave Instagram “for a while” — something she has done several times in recent months — to focus on “work.”

She continued, “I'm just standing up for what I believe in. I'm not ashamed of it.

“I love my fans more than anything in the world.”

In his virtual conversation with Zach Sang, Blanco criticized his current girlfriend with a thinly veiled insult while stating that Bieber is “not one of those cookie-cutter pop artists.”

He continued, “Justin says, 'Yo. I have a pimple and I'm scared today.' He's always been honest about things like that.

“For me, I think he's really falling into himself now as an adult. It's brave to release this song,” he added.

Benny collaborated with Justin on his song Lonely, which was released in 2021.
