She said: \u201cThat was a great day off. That was my vacation. We got five days to be together, so Benny and I ate a lot of pasta. I spent my birthday with just him, and it was just so easy. He\u2019s just so precious. I loved it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The couple celebrate their first wedding anniversary this month and Gomez, 34, couldn\u2019t be happier.<\/p>\n
She gushed: \u201cWe\u2019re still in the honeymoon stage. It just feels so wonderful to have a partner that genuinely listens and meets you right where you are, whatever that mood or day looks like. I need him, and I love him. He is a very joyful human: fun, spontaneous and he loves to talk.\u201d<\/p>\n
Blanco has transformed his wife\u2019s outlook on life for the better.<\/p>\n
Asked if she\u2019s adopted anything about the way he approaches life, Gomez said: \u201cYeah, stop overthinking and be a little bit more confident. That\u2019s something he doesn\u2019t pressure me to be. He just inspires me to be that.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Single Soon hitmaker has adopted a more \u201cpeaceful\u201d way of life in recent years and is grateful for the balance she\u2019s achieved.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cWhen I was younger, I felt like it was 90 miles an hour. It was fun, but I only felt good when I would work.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow I genuinely take time to appreciate my life, so yes, I\u2019ve been busy but I\u2019ve balanced it really well.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love where I am now. I feel very lucky, and I enjoy every day.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"She said: \u201cThat was a great day off. That was my vacation.
