Selena Gomez had a fairytale moment as her grandfather David walked her down the aisle during her wedding to Benny Blanco this past Saturday, a choice that felt almost perfectly scripted.
A source close to the family relayed to us that Selena’s selection of her maternal grandfather was straightforward; their strong bond was pivotal, especially since he never experienced the privilege of escorting his own daughter, Mandy, down the aisle due to her elopement.
Additionally, it has come to light that Selena’s stepfather Brian has aspirations for Mandy’s daughter, Gracie, to one day experience a similar tradition. It appears this family bond extends to Brian himself, whom Selena is said to be quite close with.
Moreover, our insider noted that Selene’s mother approved of the heartfelt gesture, describing it as exceptionally thoughtful.
Mandy, who co-founded the mental health organization Wondermind alongside Selena, took to Instagram to express her joy about the ceremony. She wrote, “The evening couldn’t have been more beautiful and perfect! Absolutely flawless!”
In her heartfelt post, she further reflected, “It was a fairytale come true and it was beyond heartwarming watching my father walk her down the aisle!!!”
Selena’s close relationship with her grandparents is well known; she even lived with them for several years, showcasing their bond on her cooking show, “Selena + Chef.”
Selena’s father, Rick, was also in attendance as she exchanged vows with Benny, and though it appears their relationship is stable, his feelings regarding the choice of her grandfather remain somewhat of a mystery.
All in all, it looks like the wedding was a resounding success, with family and friends celebrating this “Rare” and beautiful love. Congratulations to the jubilant couple!
