Rumors about a possible pregnancy by Selena Gómez exploded after J Balvin made an ambiguous comment in an interview. Although networks exploded with speculation, there is no official confirmation.
The Colombian singer J Balvin unleashed a real stir on social networks after a recent interview for an American media, where he talked about his friendship with Selena Gomez and let out a comment that lit the rumors. When the interviewer asked him what would give Selena for her wedding with Benny Blanco, J Balvin replied: “He would give him a gift for his baby.”
The journalist, surprised, insisted if Gomez was waiting for a son, to which the reggaeton added with a laugh: “They will have it, I can see the future.” As expected, his words quickly went viral, fanning speculation of a possible pregnancy. Benny Blanco even shared on Instagram a photo holding a mini watermelon with the phrase “It’s a Baby”, which added more fuel to rumors.
However, so far there is no official confirmation by Selena Gómez or Benny Blanco. In fact, the singer herself has been very open about the health challenges she faces and that would complicate a natural pregnancy.
Selena suffers from Systemic Lupus erythematosus (Les), a chronic autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks by error tissues and healthy organs. In his case, this condition derived in lupus nephritis, a serious inflammation of the kidneys that led her to undergo a renal transplant in 2017, thanks to the donation of her friend, actress France Raisa.
In addition to physical challenges, Selena has publicly shared that Lupus has impacted her mental health, causing anxiety, panic attacks and episodes of depression. Even in 2016 he had to cancel part of his “revival tour” to prioritize his emotional well -being.
For these reasons, Selena has commented on previous interviews that she cannot gesture to her own children, because a pregnancy would put her life and that of the baby at risk. Even so, he has expressed his desire to form a family in the future, considering options such as subrogated gestation or adoption.
For now, the alleged pregnancy remains only a rumor fed by ambiguous comments and publications in networks. Neither Selena nor Benny have officially confirmed anything.
