Swift’s comment was one of many from fellow celebrities celebrating the news. Close friends of Gomez, including Jennifer Aniston, who exclaimed, “HONEY!! Congratulations sweet mama,” and Gwyneth Paltrow, who simply wrote, “SELENAAAAAAA,” added to the excitement.
Cardi B also chimed in, saying, “Waiiiitttt hold on,” while other stars like Mariska Hargitay, Ashley Benson, and Suki Waterhouse sent their best wishes, with Lily Collins declaring it “the best news.”
The couple publicly confirmed their relationship in December 2023, and Blanco discussed their desire to start a family just five months later during an appearance on “The Howard Stern Show.” He described his partner as “the coolest, the nicest [and] the sweetest” person, stating, “That’s my next goal” regarding family plans. Blanco agreed with Howard Stern’s belief that marriage is on the horizon for them.
Although Swift hasn’t specifically commented on Gomez and Blanco’s relationship, her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, demonstrated his support back in January by liking an Instagram photo of the couple enjoying a Los Angeles Lakers game together.
