Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Selena Gomez had plans to solo parent before Benny Blanco romance

Caption: Selena Gomez had plans to solo parent before Benny Blanco romance. The 31-year-old American singer and actress had planned to adopt children and raise them as a single mother but has hinted her blossoming romance with Benny Blanco may have changed things. The star has been dating 36-year-old music producer Benny since last year but was "really used" to single life before falling for him. I was alone for five years, and I got really used to it. A lot of people are afraid of being alone and I probably tortured myself in my head for like two years being alone, and then I kind of accepted it. Then I came up with my plan, which was I was going to adopt at 35 if I had not met anyone.” Selena addressed a recent interview between Benny and talk show icon Howard Stern in which he shared hopes of one day starting a family with her. The Hands To Myself singer said, "He can't lie to save his life. If he's asked a question, he'll answer it.”. Shining a spotlight on their romance, she added: ”I know what people can do to people I love. My own fans, who I adore and feel like have shaped who I am, will say the most hurtful things to me about how I live my life. But he has the strength in him that none of that noise fazes him.” "It's really impressive, and I just cherish every moment with him. I don't know what the future holds, but I do know that he's not going anywhere any time soon.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
