Selena Gomez can't keep her hands to herself!

On Thursday, May 9, the pop star, 31, shared a black-and-white photo to her Instagram Stories featuring Gomez holding hands with Benny Blanco. 

In the photo, the pair appear to be sitting underneath a blanket and the "Single Soon" artist can be seen wearing a stunning ring as she clasps her producer boyfriend's hand.

Hailey Bieber Is Pregnant! Model and Husband Justin Bieber Expecting First Baby Together

Gomez's post about Blanco, 36, came the same day as the Only Murders in The Building star's ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber shared he is expecting his first baby with his wife Hailey on Instagram.

A rep for the Rhode founder confirmed to PEOPLE that she is just over six months pregnant.

The announcement featured a video from the couple's vow renewal. In it, Hailey is clad in a long, lacy white dress and a veil, that flaunts her growing bump. She also included a few photos, standing with the "Baby" performer in a field. Justin can be seen standing behind Hailey with his arms around Hailey's belly while showing off their matching wedding rings.

In the caption of the post, the model only tagged her husband.

Gomez was initially linked to Blanco in December 2023, confirming the two were dating when she liked fan account posts on Instagram of the two, even commenting, “He is my absolute everything in my heart,” on one.

Since then, the "Fetish" singer has continued to share private moments with the cookbook author on her Instagram and even took him as her date to the 2024 Golden Globes in January. After the event, she shared a photo of the happy couple kissing on her Instagram Stories, writing, “I won.”

On April 30, Gomez celebrated the release of Blanco's new cookbook, Open Wide, with a special snap.

“So proud of @itsbennyblanco - Open Wide is out now!!" wrote the Wondermind co-founder as she lowered her face to a cake that was shaped and decorated like his new book.

In the next slide, Gomez flashed a wide smile while looking at the cake next to Blanco.

In the final shot, the "Eastside" hitmaker grinned at the camera, while his girlfriend, who wore a black and white polka dot dress for the celebrations, smiled and looked in a different direction.
