Benny Blanco is hearing wedding bells in his and Selena Gomez’s future.

During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show on Tuesday, May 14, the record producer, 36, opened up about his relationship with Gomez, 31, and the path he sees their romance taking. 

After Blanco revealed what he did for the couple’s first Valentine’s Day together — including renting out an entire movie theater and buying all his girlfriend’s favorite foods — host Howard Stern told him, “You are some boyfriend, you’re knocking it out the park. I see love here, I’m predicting marriage.”

“You and me both,” replied Blanco. 

“You got a ring?” asked Stern, 70. 

"I don’t have anything. I got no shoes on!” admitted Blanco with a laugh. “I gotta get my act together.”

Stern also asked Blanco, “When will you propose? You should make the announcement now. When are you going to propose to your very famous girlfriend Selena?”

After a laugh, Blanco admitted, “When I look at her … I’m always just like, I don’t know a world where it could be better than this.”

The star then went on to reveal that the pair’s first anniversary is coming up and is “right around her birthday [July 22],” adding that he has “some really good stuff” planned for the actress. 

“People always said this to me, when you know you meet your best friend, she truly is my best friend,” he said of the “Love On” singer, who he also called “the coolest, nicest, sweetest.”

“We laugh all  f---ing day, she inspires me. I get home from work, I think I had a good day. I’m like, What did you do?’ ‘Oh I just filmed this thing with Meryl Streep and then I went to a fundraiser and now I’m recording.’ My day sounds like s--- every day compared to hers,” the cookbook author added with a laugh.
