(CNN) — Welcome to the club, Taylor Swift!
Selena Gomez, who got engaged last year to record producer Benny Blanco, shared her joy on social media about Swift’s recent engagement to NFL player Travis Kelce.
A longtime friend of Swift’s, Gomez reshared the pop star’s engagement photos on Instagram and wrote, “When bestie gets engaged.”
Gomez also shared a post titled, “16 years later.” The images included engagement photos from both couples and a 2009 tweet from Swift, which read: “@selenagomez Real love still happens sometimes. It’s not just something we make up when we’re nine. I have to believe that. You do too.”
Just further evidence that two stars have been friends and supportive of each other for years.
During a joint appearance with Gomez on “Hot Ones” in March, Blanco said his lady love had converted him into being a Swiftie.
“Now I’m like, ‘Put that song on’—like we’re in the car, singing Taylor Swift songs from 10 years ago, and I feel free,” Blanco said.
Swift was equally supportive with Gomez got engaged, commenting on social media: “‘yes I will be the flower girl.”
