Gomez shared the moment on her Instagram stories, showing her laying on Blanco's shoulder with her left hand on his chest, with her engagement ring gleaming. 

She's also holding on to a small plushie, placing her cheek near the doll's head. 

The video shows the two enjoying some holiday music, with Gomez singing along to "Winter Wonderland." While their whereabouts are unknown, they were both wearing cream-colored sweaters, with Gomez rounding out her cozy look with a matching beanie. 

More stories from Blanco's Instagram show that the pair also attended a party where Nicholas Brittell, the composer known for his scores in shows like "Succession," was playing the piano. 

A clip shows him playing the song of the hit series, with listeners excited to be witnessing the moment. "Oh my god!" says a woman off-camera.

Gomez and Blanco's engagement

Earlier this month, Gomez and Blanco shared the news of their engagement. To surprise Gomez, Blanco orchestrated a picnic date with champagne and Gomez's favorite fast food, Taco Bell. While the event seemed relatively simple, a video shared by Blanco revealed that his proposal took place on a soundstage, suggesting that it was meticulously planned so they could walk away with some amazing photos and videos. 

The set was staged to resemble a park, equipped with greenery and extensive lighting.  

According to Ann Grimmet, VP of Merchandising at Jared Jewelers, Gomez's ring is expected to be valued at approximately $225,000. "Selena Gomez's engagement ring is fitting for a talent as rare as hers, given less than 5% of diamonds are marquise," she said exclusively to HOLA!
