Selena Gomez's wedding planning has reportedly hit a rough patch, with sources claiming her fiancé Benny Blanco has been less than hands-on. The 33-year-old singer and actress is said to have taken on most of the preparations for their upcoming nuptials, which are rumoured to take place this month in Montecito, California.
A source told the Daily Mail that Blanco, 37, told Gomez to make 'most' of the decisions, leading to tension. The insider said: 'He told her that he wants her to make most of the decisions.' The source added that the planning process 'wasn't smooth sailing initially' due to a shared tendency to procrastinate, and that friends have accused Blanco of being 'a bit lazy'.
While Blanco is said to be 'ecstatic' about marrying Gomez and 'forever grateful' she is marrying him, the dynamic has caused some friction. The source claimed that Gomez feels her fiancé 'could step up and make some decisions' himself. However, they noted that the relationship is not struggling, and the couple's inner circle believes this dynamic 'won't change' and could become a 'quirk' in their marriage.
Despite the initial hiccups, the source said things are now 'smooth sailing' as everything has been paid for and figured out. The couple announced their engagement in December 2024, and Gomez celebrated her hen do in Mexico last month. Their wedding is expected to be a two-day event with guests including Taylor Swift and Gomez's Only Murders In The Building co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short.
