Selena Gomez<\/a> knows that the heart wants what it wants.<\/p>\n

And what the “Good For You” singer wants is a growing family. After all, she teased what she hopes her future with husband Benny Blanco<\/a> will look like.<\/p>\n

Gomez shared a photo of herself on her Instagram Stories\u2014wearing jean shorts and a cream vest\u2014playing with a baby lying beside her on a couch. Alongside the Sept. 7 post, she wrote with a teary-eyed and a thought bubble emoji, “One day..”<\/p>\n

Although the 34-year-old is ready to love on as a mom in her future, the couple’s family planning will require additional steps due to her ongoing battle with lupus.<\/p>\n

“I haven’t ever said this,” Gomez\u2014who was diagnosed with the autoimmune disease in 2013\u2014told Vanity Fair in October 2024, “but I unfortunately can’t carry my own children. I have a lot of medical issues that would put my life and the baby’s in jeopardy. That was something I had to grieve for a while.”<\/p>\n

However, Gomez is grateful that there are alternatives available for her and Blanco.<\/p>\n

“It’s not necessarily the way I envisioned it,” she admitted. “I thought it would happen the way it happens for everyone. [But] I’m in a much better place with that. I find it a blessing that there are wonderful people willing to do surrogacy or adoption, which are both huge possibilities for me.”<\/p>\n

“I’m excited for what that journey will look like, but it’ll look a little different,” she noted. “At the end of the day, I don’t care. It’ll be mine. It’ll be my baby.”<\/p>\n

While the couple is still embracing the early chapters of their marriage, Gomez does have experience with little ones under her belt.<\/p>\n

In fact, she previously shared a glimpse into her loving relationship with younger sister Gracie Teefey<\/a>, with whom she has a 20-year age gap.<\/p>\n

“I will forever let my sister know she is strong, bold, and beautiful,” the Only Murders in the Building star wrote on Instagram in 2017<\/a>. “She will be raised to know her voice matters. She is going to understand the importance behind being a leader and inspire others by her truth.”<\/p>\n
