Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco were hit by a fresh wave of breakup rumours on Friday after a supposed 'I'm single' Instagram Story from the singer spread rapidly online. But the post, and the claims built around it, were fake, according to the report that examined and debunked the speculation.
Fans woke up to social media feeds filled with claims that Gomez had split from music producer Benny Blanco just seven months after their September 2025 wedding. The frenzy was driven by a widely shared screenshot that appeared to show a Story from Gomez's account reading: 'Just clearing things up... I'm single. No drama, no hidden story. Just focusing on myself and my peace for now.'
