Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift have been longtime BFFs, and now that they’re dating Benny Blanco and Travis Kelce, respectively, it would make sense that the group would go out on a double date.
However, it hasn’t happened yet, according to Blanco. “No we have not [double dated],” the producer told SiriusXM. “I just saw [Swift] at [Los Angeles restaurant] Sushi Park a week ago. I ran into her right before Coachella a week ago.”
The star also opened up about how he and Gomez’s romance was pleasantly unexpected. “You know how people constantly tell you ‘When you least expect it, it’s going to happen. When you’re not looking for it’? Honestly, we weren’t even — the first time we were hanging out where it was leaning towards that way, we were both talking about our love lives. Before we knew it, it just kind of happened,” he recalled.
Gomez first confirmed that she and Blanco were dating on Dec. 7, about six months into their romance. In a reply to fans on Instagram, she wrote that he “is my absolute everything in my heart” and that she is at her “happiest” in the relationship.
