Benny Blanco is taking an unconventional route to reunite with his wife, Selena Gomez.
The music producer revealed on TikTok that he’s crossing the Atlantic by boat to visit Gomez in London. He explained that his well-known fear of flying keeps him off airplanes.
Gomez has spent the past several months in the United Kingdom filming the next season of Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building.”

Although the couple has spent time apart because of Gomez’s filming schedule, they’ve continued to show support for each other online.

GettyBlanco Has Spoken About His Fear of Flying Before
This isn’t the first time Blanco has discussed avoiding air travel.
During a 2024 appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,“ he explained that he often travels to Europe by ship instead of plane.
“I don’t fly,” Blanco said. “I took a boat to Europe. I literally take the Titanic to Europe.”
He also joked that he and Ed Sheeran watched the movie “Titanic“ together during one of those crossings.
“Me and Ed Sheeran watched Titanic in bed cuddling on the fourth night,” Blanco recalled with a laugh.
While making the lengthy trip to London, Blanco is also preparing for new music. His upcoming album, “Hermoso”, is scheduled for release on Aug. 14, and his latest single, “Joven y Salvaje,” featuring Bb trickz, is available now.
