To his critics ' dismay, Blanco shared a smiling face with heart-shaped eyes emoji, proudly doting on his girlfriend. When the couple went Instagram official, some Selenators called out Gomez for choosing the Friends Keep Secrets label founder as her new boyfriend.

However, the 31-year-old clapped back at haters and warned them to leave her new beau alone. "Then why has he been the best thing that ever happened to me. The end," Gomez fired back at a critic. "Lol, yeah, and he's still better than anyone I've ever been with. Facts," she responded to another before penning a lengthy retort that read:

"I don't understand. If you actually care about me. This is my happiest. If you don't, feel free to say whatever you want. But I will never allow your words to guide my life. Ever. I'm done. If you can't accept me at my happiest, then don't be in [my] life at all."

After defending her lover, Gomez proved the criticisms did not affect her blossoming new relationship by sharing a flirty picture of herself and Blanco. In the Instagram Story update, the singer rested on her man's shoulders with a sweet smile. However, the record producer's expression could not be seen, with most of his face cropped out of the picture.

As for his romance with Gomez, the duo met through their passion for music and have worked together on various projects, including the 2019 track "I Can't Get Enough" with J Balvin and Tainy.
