Selena Gomez marriage to Benny Blanco could be a real first-world problem for the renowned singer.
The two celebrities have massive fortunes that most people could only dream about. That said, there’s a decent financial gap between what Selena makes and her husband. While Selena’s wages are higher, the pop star may be the one a little short-changed if things go south.
Selena Gomez’s fortune could create risks despite husband Benny Blanco’s wealth
Having a fortune estimated at $1.3 billion, Selena shouldn’t have much to complain about. When you add that to her new husband’s $50 million fortune, it seems like the Love You to Love Me singer has it made.
While she has been reaping the financial rewards from her music and celebrity status, Selena may be facing some significant economic risks.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, financial expert Bobbi Rebell notes that even billionaires like Selena can face difficulties if a partner makes a significant financial move without the other’s consent. “Higher net worth can also mean higher stakes if questionable choices are made, says Bobbi.
That is entirely possible, given the industry the couple is in and the fact that they can both afford to make large financial investments in various projects. Bobbi adds that prenuptial agreements are especially crucial when fortunes are as lopsided as Selena’s and Benny’s.
Given the disparity between them, respect and effective communication will be key. That’s according to matchmaker Sandra Meyers, who has billionaire to millionaire clients. For her, keeping finances separate and focusing on trust is vital for power couples like Selena and Benny to make things work. “Money can be both a blessing and a curse,” she said. Showing mutual respect and putting egos aside, she adds, is more important than numbers.
Early into their time together as husband and wife Selena’s had no trouble showing public displays of affection for her husband. Selena and Benny got married on September 27.
