‘Her fullfilled smile tells us everything’: Close up to 1st time Selena Gomez appears in LA event without ring since engagement to Benny Blanco

Selena Gomez was seen publicly for the first time since announcing her engagement to Benny Blanco on Wednesday. 

Selena Gomez, 32, was spotted for the first time in LA on Saturday since announcing her engagement to Benny Blanco just days earlier

The 32-year-old actress, known for her role in Emilia Perez, arrived at the Harmony Gold Theater in Los Angeles on Saturday, greeting fans with a friendly wave. This appearance followed her recent Instagram post revealing that the 36-year-old record producer had proposed with a stunning 8-carat marquise-cut diamond ring after a year and a half of dating. 

Social media users and celebrities flocked to the comment section to offer their congratulations to the couple

'Congratulations beauty!' Suki Waterhouse added, while Blanco himself sweetly typed out, 'hey wait¿ that's my wife'

Although Gomez chose not to wear the ring for this outing, she dazzled in a black velvet skirt paired with a white blouse tucked into her waist, complemented by a long black coat and closed-toed black pumps.

Her short, brunette hair was styled in loose curls, framing her face elegantly. She accessorized with dangling silver earrings and a silver ring on her right hand, while her makeup featured classic touches, including mascara and a bold red lip. With a bright smile and her smartphone in hand, she made her way to the venue. This outing marked her first since sharing glimpses of the romantic picnic where Blanco proposed, including a close-up of her engagement ring that she posted for her 423 million followers.
