Selena Gomez rocks fresh-faced look during date with fiancé Benny Blanco and their two new BFFs
The 33-year-old multihyphenate —who sizzled in pink lingerie in her latest Instagram post — was very dressed down for the outing as she stepped out in a long black robe and matching slippers.
The former child star pulled her dark hair into a fuss-free bun as she flashed her huge engagement ring.
Meanwhile, the 37-year-old music producer was clad in a short-sleeved, baby blue, button-up shirt.
He added a pair of loose-fitting beige trousers, finishing the look with black and white sneakers with burgundy shoelaces.
And Benny was seen sporting his signature dark curly 'fro.
It comes after Selena included a snapshot of the couple dining with Logan Lerman and his fiancée Analuisa Corrigan via Instagram on Friday.
The group enjoyed quality time over a seafood spread that included oysters and prawns.
The pop star's husband-to-be commented on the post, 'Wait … I'm gonna marry u.'
Last month the Only Murders in the Building actress used her Rare Beauty brand's TikTok account to spill details about the food she hopes to serve on her wedding day.
'My preferred dessert would be biscuits and gravy,' The Texas native revealed. 'My Nana's biscuits and gravy. That sounds like dessert to me.'
She also said in the undated video: 'Whenever that day comes, I do know I don't want a big cake.'
Selena added, 'I think I'd want a mini one, for just us, that we can freeze.'
The lovebirds confirmed their relationship in December 2023, with the pair getting engaged a year later.
'Forever starts now,' Selena wrote at the time, showing off her sparkling diamond ring.
Benny popped the question with a ring worth an estimated $1M.
Selena previously admitted she's planning to ditch the classic bride and groom dance at their reception because she's too shy.
'I don't think we're looking at having one of those 'cause they're a little — I feel embarrassed,' she said on an episode of Table Manners with Jessie and Lennie Ware.
While there won't be a traditional first dance, the singer said she's making room for a deeply meaningful moment — a special dance with her grandfather.
'He never got a chance to walk my mom down the aisle,' she shared. 'I wanted to give [my grandfather] the opportunity to have that.'

Frank Caprio, Rhode Island judge who drew a huge online audience with his compassion, dies at age 88
Frank Caprio, a retired municipal judge in Rhode Island who found online fame as a caring jurist and host of ' Caught in Providence,″ died. He was 88. His official social media accounts said Wednesday the he "passed away peacefully" after 'a long and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer.' Caprio billed his courtroom as a place 'where people and cases are met with kindness and compassion." He was known for dismissing tickets or showing kindness even when he handed out justice. Last week, Caprio posted a short video on Facebook about how he had 'a setback," was back in the hospital and was asking that people 'remember me in your prayers.' Caprio's show was filmed in his courtroom and featured his folksy humor and compassion. Clips from the show have had more than 1 billion views on social media. During his time on the bench, Caprio developed a persona at odds with many TV judges — more sympathetic and less confrontational and judgmental. In his bite-sized segments on YouTube, Caprio is often seen empathizing with those in his courtroom. Many of the infractions are also relatively minor, from failing to use a turn signal to a citation for a loud party. Caprio also used his fame to address issues like unequal access to the judicial system. 'The phrase 'With liberty and justice for all' represents the idea that justice should be accessible to everyone. However it is not,' Caprio said in one video. 'Almost 90% of low-income Americans are forced to battle civil issues like health care, unjust evictions, veterans benefits and, yes, even traffic violations, alone.' Caprio's upbeat take on the job of a judge drew him millions of views. His most popular videos have been those where he calls children to the bench to help pass judgment on their parents. One shows him listening sympathetically to a woman whose son was killed and then dismissing her tickets and fines of $400. In another clip, after dismissing a red-light violation for a bartender who was making $3.84 per hour, Caprio urged those watching the video not to duck out on their bills. 'If anyone's watching I want them to know you better not eat and run because you're going to get caught and the poor people who are working hard all day for three bucks an hour are going to have to pay your bill," he said. On social media, his family described Caprio 'as a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather and friend.' 'Beloved for his compassion, humility, and unwavering belief in the goodness of people, Judge Caprio touched the lives of millions through his work in the courtroom and beyond,' the family wrote. 'His warmth, humor, and kindness left an indelible mark on all who knew him.' State and local politicians mourned his passing and celebrated his life. 'Judge Caprio not only served the public well, but he connected with them in a meaningful way, and people could not help but respond to his warmth and compassion,' Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee said in a statement. 'He was more than a jurist — he was a symbol of empathy on the bench, showing us what is possible when justice is tempered with humanity.' Robert Leonard, who co-owned a restaurant with Caprio, said he was 'going to be sorely missed' and was 'all around wonderful.' 'There is nothing he wouldn't do for you if he could do it,' Leonard said. Caprio retired from Providence Municipal Court in 2023 after nearly four decades behind the bench. According to his biography, Caprio came from humble beginnings, the second of three boys growing up in the Federal Hill neighborhood of Providence, Rhode Island. 'I hope that people will take away that the institutions of government can function very well by exercising kindness, fairness, and compassion in their deliberations. We live in a very contentious society,' he said in 2017. 'I would hope that people will see that we can dispense justice without being oppressive.' ___ LeBlanc, an Associated Press journalist who retired in January, was the primary writer of this obituary. Associated Press writers Michael Casey in Boston and Audrey McAvoy in Honolulu contributed to this report.

I'm 25 and my boyfriend is 76... we're happily in love despite our 51-year age-gap
A 25-year-old woman who is dating a 76-year-old man has clapped back at haters who call their 51-year age-gap 'disturbing.' Diana Montano, from San Diego, wasn't looking for love when she met her now-boyfriend Edgar through a mutual friend. But as soon as she laid eyes on him, sparks flew. The two officially got together in July 2024, and have been madly in love ever since. But they have faced immense backlash over their romance, from people on the internet - as well as from Diana's own family members. While speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail about it, Diana confessed that the 'hardest part' of their age-gap romance has been introducing him to her social circle. 'Figuring out the balance of how to involve him socially with the people in my life [has been the hardest part],' she shared. 'Unlike the partners of my friends who are easily integrated in our friend group and hang outs, it's harder to get him involved because of the places we enjoy going to and then because I think about how he'd feel being involved in a group full of young adults. 'I've had some family members who don't agree and think I'm ruining my life. But it doesn't bother me too much. 'I understand how my relationship may appear at first glance, but I know I am happy.' Diana said another problem she has faced is that her partner has a hard time communicating with her younger relatives at family get togethers due to the 'language barrier' between generations. 'At family parties I was used to sitting with my cousins who are all around my age and occasionally I would go around and talk with my aunts and family friends who were in the older side,' she explained. 'But now I feel as though I need to sit more with my aunts and in general the older people in my family so that he's able to socialize with people closer to his age. 'The fact there's a slight language barrier also contributes to this since I can't entirely leave him alone.' Unfortunately, Diana admitted that she has also received some horrific comments online after she began posting photos with Edgar. She shared: 'The worst comment was one that said, "I hope you die before he does," and, "There's a special place in hell for people who abuse the elderly."' Diana and Edgar have also had their relationship called 'disturbing' and 'disgusting' by strangers. But she doesn't care what anybody else thinks and said her relationship with Edgar is the most 'intimate and passionate' one she's ever been in. 'I can understand why some may have judgements against us. A lot are quick to judge without knowing anything about us except what we post and I can tell some just really are there nitpicking, finding anything they could hate on just so that they can hate and feel their hate be justified,' she added. 'But when we read those comments it makes us laugh more than anything else, and at bare minimum it's constructive feedback.' 'I've also had a lot of positive words, with people asking how they can find a relationship like ours and asking if Edgar has any brothers. 'For us, though, our age gap isn't the center of our relationship. Yes, it's obvious, and we've had people stare at us in public. 'But everything with him feels so natural. Our conversations flow, he treats me with respect and he's actually so full of life.' Diana insisted that she and Edgar have had 'no issues connecting' despite coming from different generations because they share a lot of 'common interests.' 'We both like doing things that involve art like go to the theater to watch plays,' she gushed. 'We both enjoy being out in nature, so we go hiking together and we're making plans to go skiing. 'We're both adventurist so I don't feel like there's anything that I'd like to do that I wouldn't be able to do with him - we'll even eventually go sky diving together. 'If anything he's more fit than me to do crazy things like mountaineering, which he's done. And of course we both love traveling and exploring the world.' But there are some differences, like her love of clubbing and bars - which he has little interest in. She added, however, that Edgar is 'very open' and willing to embrace the things she loves even if he doesn't. When it comes to their sex life, she stayed coy, telling the Daily Mail: 'I am attracted him, but anything concerning our sex life we would rather keep private.' Diana said she is 'not concerned' about what will happen as Edgar gets older. 'If he ends up needing care later in life then we'll see if we get him a caretaker, something he's mentioned he'd get, and of course I'll participate in his care too,' she said. 'But it's definitely not something that concerns me right now due to how fit he is. He is very healthy and maintains his strength by going to the gym at least three times a week.' She concluded: 'Edgar brings out the best in me – and I bring out the best in him. I love being with someone who is mature, patient and understanding. I've met my soulmate; there's no one my age like him.'
