Twinning in Black
The duo coordinated in black outfits for the event. Selena wore an embellished gown layered under a jacket, styled her hair in a chic bun, and accessorized with silver earrings. Benny opted for a dark blue shirt beneath a black blazer and matching pants. The couple was all smiles as they posed for photographers, often looking lovingly at each other.

Fans shared their admiration online, with one tweeting, “The way they look at each other,” while another added, “They look so happy together.” Comments also celebrated Benny’s “glow up” and the couple’s apparent happiness.
