Love was definitely in the air at the 2026 Golden Globes! Last year, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco charmed everyone with their adorable debut as a couple. This year, they returned, but with a delightful twist: they're now married! After a secret, star-studded wedding in Santa Barbara, California, last September, the couple's relationship has blossomed into something truly special.
Gomez, nominated once again for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series—Musical or Comedy, stunned in a custom Chanel gown. This wasn't just any dress; it was a masterpiece of velvet, adorned with a cascade of pink feathers, silk chiffon, and organza. Can you believe it took 323 hours and roughly 200 embroidered elements to create? She paired the gown with elegant black heels and sparkling diamond earrings. Blanco, ever the supportive partner, looked dapper in a classic black suit.
Rewinding to the 2025 Golden Globes, where Gomez was nominated for Emilia Pérez (Best Supporting Actress—Motion Picture) and Only Murders in the Building (Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series—Musical or Comedy), she was the epitome of a real-life Disney princess. She wore a custom-made, off-the-shoulder Cinderella-blue Prada gown, complete with a matching sash. Her hair was styled in a glamorous Old Hollywood bob, and a dazzling diamond necklace completed the look. Her then-fiancé, Benny Blanco, beamed with pride in an all-white suit. Host Nikki Glaser even gave them a special shoutout during her opening monologue.
"Selena Gomez is here—double nominee tonight for Emilia Pérez and Only Murders. And she’s here with her new fiancé, Benny Blanco," Glaser quipped. "And Benny Blanco is here because of the genie who granted him that wish. Man, lucky guy."
But here's where it gets interesting... The evolution of their relationship, from a blossoming romance to a secret wedding, has captured the hearts of many.
