Benny Blanco and Ed Sheeran reenacted one of Titanic’s most famous scenes after watching the movie in bed together while on a boat.
Benny Blanco and Ed Sheeran reenacted one of Titanic’s most famous scenes after watching the movie in bed together.
The 38-year-old producer famously opts to cross the Atlantic by boat because of his fear of flying, and he’s recalled a particularly memorable trip with his friend on the RMS Queen Mary 2.
Discussing how he and Ed watched Titanic in their cabin, he added to the Sunday Times magazine: “In bed together. And then we went out to the end of the ship and did the Titanic.”
Benny then stretched his arms out, echoing the characters of Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Rose (Kate Winslet) as they stood on the bow of the doomed liner in the 1997 classic.
He added: “It was such a fun time.”
Over the summer, Benny sailed over to the UK to be with wife Selena Gomez on her birthday as she was in London filming Only Murders in the Building, and this time, he made the trip with his divorced parents Sandra and Andrew.
He noted: “They’re very friendly.”
The Friends Keep Secrets podcaster joked the idea of being cooped up on a boat with separated parents sounded like a reality TV show.
He quipped: “It comes out soon.”
Meanwhile, Selena recently admitted she found it “stressful” when Benny was making the trip to visit her.
She told People magazine: “I wish he was flying right now, but he doesn’t fly.
“He took a boat to see me in London [this summer when I was working]. It’s very romantic, but also equally stressful if you’re the wife. You’re just hoping he’s safe. I have a handkerchief, I’m crying, I’m waving him off and [sings] ‘I’ll be saving you…’ Yeah, it’s my life.”
Benny and Selena also took a short vacation in Tuscany, Italy, at that time and the Rare Beauty founder couldn’t have asked for a better birthday.
She said: “That 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’s just so precious. I loved it.”
The couple celebrate their first wedding anniversary this month and Selena, 34, couldn’t be happier.
She gushed: “We’re 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.”
