He has a younger sister, Tori Gomez, and an elder brother, Dakota Gomez, a tattoo artist. He graduated from the University of Southern California after attending Citrus Valley High School. He excelled in school and was also involved in sports.

He started working in the premium real estate market after graduating. Gomez is a buying agent with the upscale real estate firm The Aaron Kirkman Group. He conducts several high-profile transactions with star clients.

He has swiftly emerged as a significant player in the market and is highly sought after due to his broad understanding of luxury estates and design.

His relationship with the pop sensation Ariana Grande gained tremendous popularity. Gomez and Grande first came across each other when her team hired the Aaron Kirman Group to find her a house before the pandemic. Soon, they started seeing each other but kept their relationship a secret. Grande confirmed their relationship when he appeared alongside her in her music video, Stuck with U, in May 2020.

During the Covid-19 lockdown they quarantined together. In December 2020, right before Christmas, the couple got engaged. On May 15, 2021, five months after their engagement, they married in a small ceremony at her stunning and historic Montecito home in Santa Barbara. On May 26, 2021, Grande posted on Instagram to confirm the wedding. Sadly, however, the pair announced their split in 2023.
