Selena Gomez talks about plans to become a mother of four children
Singer Selena Gomez said that she wants to build a big family with her husband and producer Benny Blanco and become a mother of four children. All the details are in the Izvestia article.
Plans for a large family and children
On the air of the podcast "Friends Keep Secrets", the actress admitted that she dreams of having four children. She was inspired to make this wish by the film "Family Stone", which shows a large family at a common dining table. Selena noted that she would like to see a similar picture in her house when she gets older.
Benny Blanco supported his wife, noting that he always dreamed of becoming a father. Even before the wedding, he declared his love for children and constant prayers for replenishment in the family. At the same time, the couple is philosophical about the implementation of these plans, allowing for any scenarios.
"I want four [children] <...>. Whatever happens, happens. If we have only one [child] or none. <...> We don't know [in advance], but my dream was for sure that they would all be sitting at the dinner table with their significant other, children, or being single," Gomez shared.
Mental health
Gomez also stressed the importance of having a partner around at the moment due to bipolar disorder, which she was diagnosed with in 2020. According to her, Benny Blanco helps her to recognize periods of mania in time and cope with them.
Blanco himself clarified that sometimes Gomez does not remember the moments of exacerbation, but the rest of the time she is extremely attentive to her condition. The actress admitted that the diagnosis allowed her to live more freely and understand the reasons for her inconsistent actions in the past, when she acted under the influence of fear or excessive passion.
"It's a very delicate thing, because technically you shouldn't talk to a person about it while they're in a deep state of mania. But even when we started dating, she was already very aware. She can just say, "I think I'm feeling a little manic," Benny Blanco shared.
The story of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's relationship
They have known each other for many years thanks to their joint work on musical projects. The producer participated in the creation of such hits of the singer as "Same Old Love" (2015).
Their relationship officially became known in December 2023, although by that time the couple had been dating for six months. A year later, in December 2024, the lovers announced their engagement, and in September 2025 they held a private wedding ceremony in Santa Barbara.
The actress has repeatedly stated that she feels completely safe with Blanco and sees a future together with him.
"I think this is the highest level of security I've ever experienced, and I see my future next to this man," Gomez said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
