However, it hasn't alway been sunshine and roses (or balloons and diamond necklaces). In 2014, the Rare Beauty founder struggled to cope after being diagnosed with lupus and checked in for a two-week stay at the Meadows, an upscale treatment facility in Arizona.
Years later she battled depression and anxiety in 2018 after she was dumped for a third time by on-again off-again ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber.
"I thought the world would be a better place if I wasn't there," Gomez once lamented. "It felt like all of my pain and anxiety washed over me all at once. It was one of the scariest moments of my life."
In addition to her mental health issues, including that she suffers from bipolar disorder, Gomez's friends are reportedly concerned she's moving too fast with Blanco.
Gomez, however, has remained steadfast in her love for her man declaring: "He has been the best thing that's ever happened to me."
She also told naysayers on social media: “He’s still better than anyone I've ever been with."
