Selena Gomez flashes a cheerful smile  with fiancé Benny Blanco on loved-up Disneyland trip

Selena Gomez and her fiancé Benny Blanco put on a loved-up display as they enjoyed a visit to Disneyland on Friday. 

The Emilia Perez actress, 32 – who recently joined pal Jennifer Aniston during a Galentine’s Day event – flashed a cheerful smile as she linked arms with the record producer, 36, as they strolled through the crowded amusement park. 

Her appearance at the Happiest Place on Earth comes as Gomez continues to brush aside backlash for her tearful deportation video. 

The former Disney channel star was stylishly casual wearing a pair of denim jeans as well as a long, black coat. 

She slipped into a pair of black boots with chunky soles and allowed her brunette locks to flow down naturally past her shoulders. 

The Wolves songstress easily carried a black, cross-body purse over her shoulder to hold a few items she needed during the daytime excursion.

Blanco showed off his personal sense of style donning patterned trousers as well as a light blue ʙuттon up and jacket on top. 

The Eastside hitmaker completed the look by opting for a pair of comfy, slip-on shoes and appeared to be holding a light stick in his hand. 

The couple – who became engaged late last year in December – were guided by bodyguards as they exited the amusement park. 

Benny could be seen flashing a peace sign as the two stars were seemingly greeted by fans at Disneyland. 

Nearly two months earlier, the Only Murders In The Building actress announced the Blanco had popped the big question to her after a year and a half of dating.

She posted a series of snaps to her main Instagram page that had captured the special moment.

In one image, the star only showed her left hand to give her fans and followers a close-up glimpse of the eye-catching, marquise diamond ring.

The engagement also pays homage to Selena’s hit 2015 track тιтled, Good For You, where she notably sings the lyrics: ‘I’m on my marquise diamonds / I’m a marquise diamond / Could even make that Tiffany jealous.’

‘And I’ve known Jennifer for over a decade now and she’s someone I’ve always looked up to, and she’s always been there for me. And it’s nice to have people in life who can just be there and hear you out.’ 

Jennifer also expressed that, ‘It’s been a really hard couple of weeks,’ in reference to the L.A. fires. ‘But we’re here to celebrate women and support each other.’ 

Selena’s attendance at the event was her first appearance since uploading a video to Instagram of herself crying over Trump’s deportation policy. 

In the reel – which has since been taken down – the star emotionally said: ‘All my people are getting attacked, the children.’ 

‘I don’t understand. I’m so sorry, I wish I could do something but I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I’ll try everything, I promise.’

Towards the bottom, she added the caption which simply read, ‘I’m sorry,’ followed by the Mexican flag.

Not long after deleting the clip, Gomez uploaded a separate post to her Instagram stories and wrote: ‘Apparently it’s not ok to show empathy for people.’

In response, the White House shared a video as mothers whose children were raped or murdered by illegal migrants slammed the actress over her weeping clip.
