Selena Gomez cozied up to her boyfriend, Benny Blanco, in a sweet throwback snap as he shared a loving tribute to the star in celebration of her 32nd birthday on Monday.
The Wolves songstress – who recently gushed she is ‘grateful’ for Only Murders In The Building co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short – officially turned one year older on Monday.
The Rare Beauty founder received birthday wishes from the record producer, 36, as well as other celebrities and close pals, such as Nicola Peltz Beckham.
Blanco jumped to his main Instagram page to share an image that showed the couple snuggling close together while laying on a large, comfy bed.
The photo appeared to be a behind-the-scenes snap that was taken while on set of the 2019 music video for the track, I Can’t Get Enough – which also featured J Balvin and Tainy.
He could be seen wearing a fuzzy, inflatable bear costume while Selena wrapped her arms around Benny in an affectionate embrace.
The Eastside hitmaker also uploaded a picture as the Wizards Of Waverly Place star flashed a cheerful smile towards the camera while holding a teddy bear in her arms.
The music artist typed out in the caption, ‘i used to play a teddy bear in ur music video and now i get to b urs in real life… happy bday bb ! i love u!’
Shortly after Blanco uploaded the birthday post, Gomez shared her response in the comment section and typed out, ‘I love you,’ followed by a teddy bear emoji.
Earlier this month, the lovebirds revealed who said ‘I love you’ first while also sharing who is the ‘big spoon’ in bed while taking a quiz for a TikTok video.
At one point, the stars were asked who the ‘big spoon’ was, and in response, Blanco sweetly wrapped his arms around Selena. In regards to who said ‘I love you’ first, Gomez pointed at herself while mouthing the word ‘Me.’
To answer who was the ‘more romantic’ one, the actress offered an unsure hand gesture while the record producer motioned towards himself.
Gomez also took to her own Instagram account to celebrate her 32nd birthday, and included radiant selfies to show off a new diamond ‘B’ necklace – referencing to her boyfriend.
The pair’s romance was confirmed late last year in December – and Selena previously flaunted a diamond ‘B’ ring on social media at the time.
In the selfies, Gomez parted her brunette locks to the side and allowed the strands to effortlessly flowed down past her shoulders in light waves.
A layer of mascara was added to her lashes, while a light shadow was worn around her eyes to glam up the look.
A warm blush was added to better accentuate her cheekbones, while a nude-colored, satin tint was worn on her lips for a finishing touch.
Gomez also posed for a photo outside while spending time at a tropical destination to ring in her 32nd birthday.
She wore a yellow sundress that was held up with thick straps that wrapped around her shoulders, and also sported a pair of white socks as she stood on a wooden deck by the scenic ocean.
Blue sky filled with puffy, white clouds stretched out above her, as well as shady, tall palm trees.
Balloons that spelled out, ‘Happy birthday Selena,’ were placed on a few tree trunks, while additional balloons were used as decoration on one side of the deck.
‘Thank you so much for your birthday wishes!! I’m very grateful and always thankful 32,’ she wrote in the caption of her post.
Benny also jumped down to the comment section and added, ‘i got the hottest chick in the game wearing my chain,’ while referencing to her ‘B’ necklace.
Other stars sent their birthday wishes to Gomez, such as her Wizards Of Waverly Place co-star, David Henrie, who penned, ‘Happy birthday!!!!’
Selena later took to her Instagram stories and uploaded an adorable snap as she embraced Blanco while he laid a gentle kiss on her forehead.
In text added over the image, the actress and singer wrote, ‘Love of my life.’
Also on Monday, Gomez celebrated another milestone: the fourth anniversary of her nonprofit organization called the Rare Impact Fund.
She shared a photo as she held a big smile on her face while holding an assortment of balloons in her hands.
‘I can’t believe it’s been four years since we launched the Rare Impact Fund,’ she began to her fans and followers.
‘To date the Rare Impact Fund has raised over $15 million for youth mental health, supporting 26 organizations across 5 continents. All of this would not be possible without you!’
The star continued, ‘Building the Rare Impact Fund has been my biggest wish. As always, for my birthday this year I would be so grateful if you were able to donate to the Rare Impact Fund.’
‘Please visit RareImpactFund.org to learn more and to donate. No amount is too small, and this is the biggest gift you could ever give me. Love you all!’
Selena’s close friend, Nicola Peltz Beckham, also shared a birthday tribute on Instagram by uploading a black and white snap to her Instagram stories of the pair.
As the two pals struck fun poses in dazzling dresses, the media personality added the text, ‘happy birthday @selenagomez i love you so much! i hope all your dreams come true.’
Nicola uploaded another image as the two posed underneath fireworks and wrote, ‘@selenagomez my girl,’ followed by a pink heart emoji.
Issues singer, Julia Michaels, shared a throwback Polaroid image of the two stars and added, ‘Happy birthday @selenagomez. I love you deeply,’ followed by two red heart emojis.
Another close friend of the singer, Connar Franklin Carpenter, shared a black and white photo of Gomez eating pasta on a jet. ‘it’s @selenagomez day,’ she wrote.
Connar also uploaded a throwback snap of the pair that was taken while on set of the star’s music video for the track, Back To You.
‘You’re the easiest person to celebrate. i am thankful for the friend and sister you have been to me thru every good and bad time,’ she began.
‘You’re just all the good things, loyal, caring, funny sweet, smart, all of them! I don’t know what id do without you. celebrating you today and everyday!! HBD @selenagomez.’
Musician Haven took to her own Instagram stories to include a photo of the two with the message, ‘Happy Birthday babe!! I love you so so much.’
Zoe Saldana – who starred alongside Selena in the 2024 film Emilia Perez – reposted Gomez’s own birthday post to her Instagram stories and added a variety of birthday balloon emojis.
