Selena Gomez 'Seething' Over Benny Blanco's Diet Comments

Selena Gomez is reportedly upset with husband Benny Blanco following his remarks about her diet on the Goop Podcast earlier this month, May 2026. Blanco described Gomez's eating habits as 'terrible,' akin to a '5-year-old,' noting her preference for junk food and aversion to fruits and vegetables. This has allegedly left Gomez 'seething' and feeling 'blindsided' due to her past insecurities related to lupus and its effects on her body weight.

Gomez has been open about her health battles since revealing her lupus diagnosis in 2015. She has undergone chemotherapy and a kidney transplant in 2017, with her friend Francia Raisa donating the organ. These health issues and medications have caused significant fluctuations in her weight, a topic she has previously tried to shield herself from public scrutiny.

The couple tied the knot in September 2025. While recent reports in April 2026 had suggested marital issues, Gomez had previously dismissed these rumors. However, Blanco's recent candid comments about her diet have reportedly reignited sensitivity around her past struggles and public perception of her health.
