Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco aren’t shy when it comes to their relationship. The couple have flaunted plenty of PDA-filled photos, and even spoken publicly about getting married and growing their family, despite having dated for a little over a year. So it was quite the surprise when Blanco didn’t accompany Gomez on the red carpet tonight at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards.
Instead, the Only Murders in the Building actor walked the carpet at Los Angeles’s Peacock Theater solo. She did so with grace and style, however, wearing an elegant Ralph Lauren gown.

Though Blanco was not pictured with Gomez, he was supporting her from the sidelines. In footage captured by E! News, he could be seen trailing behind the star, wearing a black bejeweled tuxedo.
This year’s Emmys mark a big night for the actor: Not only did she receive her first acting nomination for her performance as Mabel Mora on Hulu’s Only Murders, but she also earned her third producing nomination for the series, making her the most nominated Latina producer in the history of the awards.
Gomez recently shared that her relationship with Blanco has been unlike any other. “I’ve never been loved this way,” she said in a cover story for Vanity Fair. “He’s just been a light. A complete light in my life. He’s my best friend. I love telling him everything.”
In light of engagement rumors, she also mentioned that there’s no pressure for Blanco to propose. “We always make sure we’re protecting what we have, but there’s no rules,” she said. “I want him to always be himself. I always want to be myself.”
