Benny Blanco's heart desires what it desires. Because of this, he wholeheartedly concurs with his wife Selena Gomez's assessment of their future intentions, which she recently expressed by captioning a picture of herself playing with a baby with the words "One day."

"That's what I wanted too!" Blanco was ecstatic when he appeared on Today With Jenna & Sheinelle on September 15. "I’m like, ‘Really? One day? When?'"

"She doesn’t even answer my DMs. It’s crazy," the music producer laughed as he revealed. "I’ll send her the cutest video and she won’t answer it."

But because of the "Hands to Myself" singer's lupus, he and Gomez, 34, are aware that they will need to take a few more measures to grow their family.

"I unfortunately can't carry my own children," she revealed this in a Vanity Fair interview from 2024. "I have a lot of medical issues that would put my life and the baby's in jeopardy."

While Gomez initially thought "thought it would happen the way it happens for everyone," nevertheless, she is "excited for what that journey will look like, but it'll look a little different."

"I find it a blessing that there are wonderful people willing to do surrogacy or adoption, which are both huge possibilities for me," the former Disney Channel star went on to say. "At the end of the day, I don't care. It'll be mine. It'll be my baby."

Gomez is also overjoyed to have a companion that supports her.

"I’ve never been loved this way," she gushed over Blanco. "He’s just been a light. A complete light in my life. He’s my best friend. I love telling him everything."
