Pop star and actress Selena Gomez and her husband, music producer Benny Blanco, have given fans a heartwarming glimpse into their newlywed life with a series of romantic photos from a festive date night. The couple appeared deeply in love as they explored the dazzling Enchant Los Angeles holiday experience.
A Winter Wonderland Escape
The pair enjoyed a cosy, casual night out at the sprawling Christmas attraction set within Santa Anita Park. Bundled up against the chill in dark hoodies and face masks, they wandered through towering tunnels illuminated by a spectacular array of blue, gold, and rainbow-coloured lights. Gomez, 33, shared several snaps and selfies from the evening to her Instagram, where the post quickly amassed over 2.1 million likes in under twelve hours.
In one soft-focused selfie, Gomez gazed at the camera from inside a light-covered passageway, the glowing structure creating a magical backdrop. Other images captured the couple in tight embraces in front of massive illuminated displays, showcasing their clear affection for one another.
Intimate Moments Captured
The slideshow included particularly tender moments that captivated followers. One photo showed Gomez pressing a gentle kiss to Blanco's forehead as he smiled with his eyes closed, the warm glow of thousands of lights surrounding them. Another pictured the pair beaming beneath a vibrant rainbow-lit archway, leaning into each other as crowds milled around them.
From a higher vantage point, Gomez also shared a breathtaking shot overlooking the park's entire landscape, which featured a sea of twinkling installations, glowing trees, and festive structures spread across the historic racetrack grounds. The Only Murders in the Building star captioned her post simply, "Visiting a wonderland."
Fans and Friends React to the Newlyweds
The adorable photos prompted an outpouring of love from fans and famous friends alike. Actress Shay Mitchell commented, "Love this!!", while another fan wrote, "Couple goals!!! all the love and happiness to you." The post solidifies the couple's status as one of Hollywood's most smitten pairs.
Gomez and Blanco were married in a lavish ceremony on September 27 at the Sea Crest Nursery in Santa Barbara, California. The event was witnessed by 170 guests, including Gomez's close friend Taylor Swift and her Only Murders co-stars Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Paul Rudd. The couple got engaged in late 2024 after Blanco proposed with a $1 million marquise-cut diamond engagement ring.
Notably, Blanco was previously friends and a collaborator with Gomez's ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber, having worked on hits like Lonely and Love Yourself. Gomez confirmed her relationship with Blanco in December 2023, after rumours began circulating the previous June.
