The couple had been friends for years, but didn't begin dating until 2023, Blanco said in an April interview with the Wall Street Journal. "It’s crazy how your partner could just be sitting there the whole time, right in front of your eyes, and you don’t even notice, and then you have that Clueless moment where you’re like, Wait, I’m in love,'" he explained.

Gomez, meanwhile, has said of Blanco on Instagram: "He has been the best thing that’s ever happened to me ... He is my absolute everything in my heart."
In May, speaking to Drew Barrymore on The Drew Barrymore Show, Blanco gushed about his then-girlfriend. "She's just like the best, most genuine person. Everything is so completely real. Like every day when I wake up and I like walk by the mirror as I'm like, walking to her ... and I like, look at myself and I'm like, 'How did I get here?'"
