Selena Gomez and her husband Benny Blanco appear unfazed by recent online criticism, sharing a series of affectionate beachside photos that highlight the couple’s relaxed and playful relationship.
Over the weekend, the newly married pair posted several sunlit images showing them embracing along the coast. In one photograph, Blanco wrapped his arms around the “Single Soon” singer from behind as the couple stood on the sand, Gomez smiling in a simple black sweater and matching pants. Blanco kept things casual in gray sweats as he leaned in close.
Another picture captured the couple hugging on a cliffside overlooking the ocean. Gomez, 33, wore a comfortable beige leisure suit paired with a chunky brown scarf, while Blanco, 37, matched the laid-back mood in a blue hoodie and gray sweatpants, his hands resting on her hips.
The affectionate moments continued in another playful snapshot, where the former Disney star posed in denim shorts and a button-down shirt as Blanco hugged her from behind, resting a hand on her midsection while holding a drink. Gomez’s large diamond wedding ring was also visible.
Although Gomez did not include a caption with the post, she later reshared the photos on her Instagram Stories with “Supernatural” by Ariana Grande playing in the background. Blanco responded in the comments with a heart-eyes emoji, while fans filled the post with supportive messages.
The loved-up images come weeks after Blanco faced online criticism following the debut of his podcast, “Friends Keep Secrets,” when some viewers mocked the appearance of his feet in a clip from the show. One critic even suggested Gomez should leave him.
Gomez responded with humor during a March podcast episode, jokingly kissing Blanco’s feet while on air.
“I love you so much,” Blanco said during the exchange.
Despite the online chatter, the couple’s latest photos suggest they remain focused on enjoying their relationship rather than the reactions of internet critics.
