LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Selena Gomez, who married Benny Blanco in September 2025, has recently been pulled into rumors about her marriage. A viral post claims that Gomez and Blanco are currently facing marital issues, sparking widespread speculation online. The report has prompted questions about the origin of these claims and whether they are real. Let's fact the claim.

Claim: Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are facing marital issues



According to X user @Joethecreator99, a post claimed that Selena Gomez and her husband Benny Blanco are currently experiencing marital issues. 

The report began, “Allegedly actress Selena Gomez and her husband Benny blanco are currently going through a marital issue." It continued, “It is reported that Selena Gomez caught Benny blanco cheating through texts she saw with another celebrity who is currently not confirmed yet."

The post also stated, “Sources close to the two have claimed that Selena have apparently left their home in Los Angeles and moved to her own apartment in California." 

The post reportedly gained over 1.2 million views and received numerous comments online, with many users believing the rumor. The post also included three images, a casual couple selfie, a red-carpet photo of them together, and a solo portrait of Gomez, showcasing their public appearances amid the ongoing rumors.

This comes after the couple married in an intimate ceremony in Santa Barbara, California, with family and friends on September 27. Since their marriage, the couple has continued to share public appearances and affectionate moments, along with updates about their married life.

Fact Check: The gossip about Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s marriage is false

The claim made in the X post Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco is not true. It is unsubstantiated gossip originating from unverified social media accounts, including the one that posted it, with no credible evidence or reporting from reputable sources.

The allegations, that Selena Gomez caught Benny Blanco cheating via texts with an unnamed celebrity and then left their Los Angeles home for her own apartment in California, align with recent viral rumors from mid-April 2026, but they trace back to parody or low-credibility accounts sharing alleged posts, including claims that she said she is “single” and has “no drama.”

Fact-checks and reports have identified these claims as unverified misinformation. In recent months, multiple outlets have instead reported positively on Gomez and Blanco’s relationship, with no evidence of infidelity, separation, or moving out. Searches across major platforms using terms such as “Selena Gomez marital issue with Benny Blanco” or “Selena Gomez caught Benny Blanco cheating through texts” return no credible supporting evidence.

In this case, reputable journalism consistently debunks the rumor as baseless. If such a development were real, it would likely be covered by major entertainment news organizations with confirmed sources or official statements, which has not happened. As of April 2026, Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez remain together and married.
