Selena Gomez's First Christmas as Mrs. Blanco: Inside Their Cozy Celebration

Selena Gomez BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Selena Gomez is soaking up her first Christmas as a newlywed with husband Benny Blanco and sharing the cozy moments with fans. On December 4th she posted a timelapse video and photos on Instagram of the couple decorating their Christmas tree together at home, captioning it “Our first Christmas as a married couple.” The sweet clips show them hanging ornaments, cuddling, and sharing a kiss, with Gomez in a grey knit sweater and shorts and Blanco in a relaxed brown outfit. The images quickly went viral, with outlets like Z100 and AOL highlighting the heartwarming post as a rare intimate glimpse into their married life just months after their September 27 wedding in Santa Barbara.

Gomez and Blanco tied the knot in a dreamy ceremony at Sea Crest Nursery with around 170 guests including Taylor Swift, Paris Hilton, and Ed Sheeran, according to People magazine. Their relationship, which began in late 2023 and was publicly confirmed courtside at a Lakers game in December 2023, has moved at a notably fast pace, going from soft launch to marriage in about 21 months, a timeline noted by fashion and culture commentary site Faz Fashion as a strategic move toward accelerated legitimacy in Hollywood.

Professionally, Gomez remains one of the most powerful figures in entertainment and beauty. Bloomberg reports her net worth hit 1.3 billion in 2025, driven largely by the massive success of her makeup brand Rare Beauty, which brought in 400 million in revenue in the year through February 2024. Parade and ElementsKit both note she’s now considered a billionaire, joining an elite club with Rihanna and Taylor Swift. Rare Beauty continues to be her biggest income stream, though she also earns top dollar for Instagram sponsorships, reportedly charging over 2.5 million per post according to Hopper HQ.

Gomez recently opened up about Blanco’s support at her Rare Impact Fund Benefit in Los Angeles, describing him as a kind and grounding presence who helps her manage her mental health. She’s also been filming Selena + Chef: Home for the Holidays at her Encino home, where she lives with her grandparents, according to Food Network.
