Selena Gomez has shared the sweet, handmade note boyfriend Benny Blanco gave her as they keep the spark alive at a distance.
The couple set up their first virtual date – and Benny, 36, marked the occasion by sending his love an adorable card with a drawing of a flower.
‘Happy First Virtual Date,’ the inside of the card read.
Selena, 31, who recently paid tribute to her boyfriend for his birthday, posted a snap of the coral-hued card to her Instagram, along with a clarifying note at the bottom.
‘#longdistancerelationship vibes,’ she wrote.
Benny and Selena have been going strong since the songstress confirmed their romance late last year.
They first became connected back in 2019, when they collaborated on the track I Can’t Get Enough. But it would take years for them to become romantically involved.
Selena confirmed she was indeed dating Benny back in December after she commented and liked various posts about their relationship.
She revealed they had already been dating for six months.
A source spoke to ET at the time and told the media outlet that the singer had finally reached a point where she was comfortable with sharing her relationship with the public.
‘She feels so safe and secure with him, so she felt like it was a good time to share how happy she is with her fans,’ they said.
‘Benny is a great communicator, is honest and open with Selena, and listens to her,’ they stated.
‘He’s respectful, isn’t a player, and not in it for the attention or fame. He doesn’t care about any of that and Selena sees that and really trusts him,’ they said.

Recently, she has been showing off a diamond-encrusted ‘B’ initial on her finger, in tribute to her new man.
While talking about her new single Love On, she opened up about her love life during an Apple Music 1 interview with Zane Lowe.
‘Without getting into too much detail, I think it’s just really important to meet someone that respects you,’ she said.
‘And I think it’s really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in,’ she continued. ‘I’d have to say overall it’s the safest that I feel, and it’s been really lovely and I’ve only grown through it. So it’s awesome.’
