Selena Gomez celebrates Benny Blanco's birthday as Hailey Bieber denies mocking their romance
Selena Gomez gave Benny Blanco a touching birthday shout-out.
The 'Only Murders in the Building' star celebrated her fiancé with an Instagram slideshow Saturday, gushing that she is 'not sure what [she] did to deserve' him.
'But damn am I glad you were born,' she added. 'happy birthday baby
.'
The social media slideshow kicked off with a photo of Blanco, 37, kissing his 32-year-old partner's forehead.
The rest of the carousel included snaps of the couple posing on a snowy getaway, cuddling up on a couch, snapping selfies in a car and more.
The upload came on the heels of Hailey Bieber making headlines for allegedly 'liking' a TikTok video mocking Gomez and Blanco's photo shoot for Interview magazine.
The model, however, denied showing support for the shady post via her rep.
'This never happened,' Bieber's spokesperson said Sunday. 'This entire story has been fabricated by a content creator looking to capitalize off of an old, tired narrative.'
Gomez and Bieber, 28, have repeatedly made headlines for an alleged feud due to their mutual connection to Justin Bieber.
The 'Baby' singer dated Gomez on and off from 2010 to 2018 and married Hailey just months after their final breakup.
The couple, who renewed their vows in 2024, are the parents of 6-month-old son Jack.
Gomez, for her part, began dating Blanco in 2023, and the record producer proposed in December of the following year.
Hailey, notably, reacted to the pair's engagement news by 'liking' Gomez's Instagram announcement.
The former 'Drop the Mic' co-host has denied bad blood with Gomez on multiple occasions, telling 'Call Her Daddy' listeners in 2022 that it was 'all respect' and 'all love' between them.
Gomez, for her part, defended Hailey against death threats when feud speculation ramped up in 2023.

This Titanic Polk Street Gay Bar Just Got Pulled Back from the Brink
Polk Street, where the first San Francisco Pride parade marched in 1970, just got great news: The last remaining gay bar in Polk Gulch got a big stimulus injection from a new owner. The Cinch Saloon, an icon in the area alongside the Grubstake Diner, opened in 1974. Now it'll get a second life from Scott Taylor, a beverage director at nearby Harris' Restaurant for 23 years. The news is more than just timely, given Pride. According to the San Francisco Chronicle , rumors had been in the air that the Cinch would close any day. One of the two former owners died in 2023. This Tuesday, June 3 announcement gives a spark of hope to the area that, once upon a time, was just as important a gayborhood as the Castro. Drag main character Juanita More told the paper she'd help Taylor keep the Cinch around 'for a hundred years.' New Oakland restaurant event debuts this summer The Oakland Restaurant Collective — a new-ish collection of business owners in the Town including chef Nelson German of alaMar Dominican Kitchen and the teams behind Jaji and the Caffè by Mr. Espresso — is about to run its first Summer Affair.

Washington's most outrageous MAGA correspondent Natalie Winters dishes on dating in DC: ‘Most men are gay'
Washington's MAGA 'It Girl' correspondent, Natalie Winters, is dishing the dirt on dating in DC after President Trump swept into office — and she's claiming 'most men' who run in the capital's political power circles are gay. 'I think most men are gay in DC — either out or closeted depending on whether they're Democrats or Republicans,' the 24-year-old White House correspondent for Steve Bannon's 'War Room' told the Times of London. Winters also had some eye-opening details on some of the men she and her friends meet in Washington, DC. Advertisement 6 MAGA White House correspondent Natalie Winters has opened up about dating in DC. Instagram/Natalie Winters 'Because I'm such a great investigative reporter, my girlfriends hit me up to investigate the guys they go on dates with,' she said. 'The stuff I found out is insane: married, people who claimed to own multiple properties. One said they had eight rentals, a hunting cabin, 500 acres, a mill town home and many restaurants, and it turned out they actually lived in a housing estate like Section 8,' she added. Advertisement As for Winters, who recently bought a house of her own, she teased that she may be off the market. 6 Winters had some choice words about the men in Washington, DC. REUTERS 'I want to marry someone who allows me to protect feminine energy in a world that is forcing me to be a girl boss because they keep sending Steve [Bannon] to prison. Perhaps I have …' she said, before trailing off. 6 Winters has been one of the biggest supporters of President Trump. AP Advertisement Winters, who had her membership application for the prestigious National Press Club in DC denied last month, delights in flouting the conventions on Capitol Hill. 6 Winters was denied access to the National Press Club recently. Instagram/Natalie Winters During dinner at the swanky Waldorf Astoria, Winters is complimented on her denim hotpants by an admirer from Texas who said she had wanted to wear something similar but was told the dress code was more formal. 'Oh, you should have worn it,' Winters said in reply. 'That's why you have to do it even more.' Advertisement 6 Young MAGA supporters in DC. REUTERS As a young woman in politics, Winters said she is used to not getting taken seriously. 'When anyone covers me, they talk as if I've just sprung up because of my miniskirts,' she said, adding that they forget about her years of reporting at 'War Room' — which is a must-listen for the MAGA faithful working in Washington. 6 Despite her partying image, Winters doesn't drink and doesn't even eat seed oils. Natalie Winters / Instagram Despite her reputation as a wild young disrupter, in reality, Winters lives a strictly controlled lifestyle. She doesn't drink, doesn't consume seed oils, doesn't wear perfume and barely ever eats carbs, she told the Times. 'I just don't like eating carbs like that. I like to eat stuff that gives me glowing skin. If it's not gonna give me glowing skin, then it's not worth it,' she said. For now, Winters continues to be a scourge of 'the Libs' in Washington and a close ally to Bannon, the former White House adviser to President Trump and trail blazer in the MAGA movement.

Meghan Markle Shares New Photos on Daughter Lilibet's Fourth Birthday
Duchess Meghan has shared never-before-seen photos of her daughter, Lilibet, on Instagram. The 43-year-old posted a black and white photograph of her hugging her daughter on what appears to be a boat. The Duchess of Sussex also posted a throwback photo from 2021 of a newborn Lilibet, with Meghan cradling the baby to her chest. The photos were posted in order to celebrate Lilibet's fourth birthday, with the caption reading: 'Happy birthday to our beautiful girl! Four years ago today she came into our lives - and each day is brighter and better because of it. Thanks to all of those sending love and celebrating her special day!' Later, Meghan also shared a video of labour with Lilibet. She is seen dancing alongside her husband to try and ease the process along. Elsewhere, more uploaded photos showed Prince Harry bonding with his baby daughter. Both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are fiercely protective of their children's privacy, with Meghan usually only posting photos of Lilibet from behind or covering her face. However, in this latest snap shared on socials, you can see the top half of Lilibet's face, with the bottom half obscured by Meghan's embrace. Meghan has taken to posting more and more tidbits of family life since she returned to Instagram earlier this year. Last week, she shared a video of her and Lilibet in matching beekeepers' outfits as they went to harvest honeycomb. 'Harvesting honey with my little honey,' she wrote at the time, (Like mother, like daughter; she's even wearing my gloves).' Meanwhile for Mother's Day, Meghan shared another photo of her carrying both her children. 'Cheers to juggling it all with joy!' she wrote. 'And to these two gems - who still attempt to climb 'mama mountain', smother me with kisses, and make every day the most memorable adventure….being your mom is the greatest privilege of my life.' Lilibet is the youngest child of Meghan and Harry, and was born in the US, a year after the pair decided to step back from being senior royals. The couple also share six-year-old Prince Archie.
