It began with an innocent snapshot posted on Sunday, August 10. In the first image, Gomez plants a kiss on Blanco’s cheek. Nothing unusual there—until followers noticed the cryptic caption: “About last nights wedding.”
For fans still counting down to the couple’s expected nuptials later this year, those four words triggered instant panic. Engagement news only broke in December, so could the wedding have happened already—and in secret?
Grammy-nominated singer SZA admitted she fell for the bait, commenting on Instagram: “This caption .. I panicked so crazy 😂 yay dave !!!”
The Reality Behind the Rumor
As it turns out, the wedding Gomez referenced wasn’t hers at all. A quick swipe through her carousel revealed the event was the marriage of rapper Lil Dicky, also known as David Burd, to his partner Kristin Batalucco.
Still, the moment highlighted how easily social media captions can whip fandoms into overdrive. One Twitter user joked, “This is why vague captions are dangerous.” Another quipped, “Don’t think Selena would marry in that fashion. Her wedding will be one for the history books.”
The Real Wedding Plans
For now, Gomez and Blanco’s real ceremony remains on the horizon, reportedly set for September in California. That leaves fans—and perhaps a few hopeful wedding crashers—plenty of time to prepare for what’s expected to be a star-studded celebration.
Gomez has previously credited her relationship with Blanco for its stability and mutual respect. Speaking to Apple Music 1 in February 2024, she shared: “Without getting into too much detail, I think it’s just really important to meet someone that respects you… I’d have to say overall, it’s the safest that I feel and it’s been really lovely. I’ve only grown through it, so it’s awesome.”
This small-scale social media storm may have ended with a laugh, but it also proves one thing: in the digital age, even the shortest caption can ignite a wildfire of speculation. And when it comes to Selena Gomez, her fans won’t be missing the actual wedding for the world.
