More details about Selena and Benny's relationship
Benny and Selena started dating last year, but they have known each other for years. The two have collaborated on multiple songs, with Blanco serving as one of the most famous producers in the music industry.
In an appearance on SiriusXM Hits 1, Blanco revealed that the two met when they were 18 and couldn't even recall the meeting. “Neither one of us remembered the meeting,” said Benny, “but her mom remembered it and was just like, ‘Yeah, you guys were 18.'”
He also shared some details about the first time they started to spend time with each other romantically. “The first time we were hanging out, where it was leaning towards that way [romantically], we were both talking about our love lives," he said. "And then just before we knew it, it just kind of happened."
