She wrote: “Happy birthday to a special girl. No matter what life throws at us, I still love you so much @franciaraisa.” The post received more than 8 million hearts and more than 23 thousand comments from the online community after just one day of being posted.
Below the post are mixed comments. Some people defended Selena Gomez for her positive attitude while others criticized the famous singer mercilessly. There are also opinions that netizens should stop judging and making inferences about other people’s lives.
Facing Selena’s sweet words, Francia did not react even though she was on the list of Selena Gomez’s followers. On her personal page, Francia continuously reposted wishes from close friends on her birthday but did not mention Selena Gomez.

A year ago, Francia decided to unfollow Selena Gomez after the famous singer’s controversial interview. Selena affirmed that she has no close friends in the entertainment industry except Taylor Swift. Recently, Francia re-followed Selena on Instagram but rarely interacted with the famous singer.
At Selena’s last birthday party a few weeks ago, Francia did not appear and at the actress’s birthday party, Selena was also absent. Last year, Francia appeared in most of the photos taken at Selena’s birthday party and dispelled rumors that the two artists were taking a break.

Francia has also been active in the American entertainment industry for many years as an actress. She and Selena have been friends for nearly 15 years. In 2017, Selena revealed that Francia was her kidney donor during her treatment for Lupus. The famous singer affirmed that the two are soulmates and expressed his gratitude to each other.

Sacrificing her kidney for her friend, Francia Raisa’s health deteriorated and she also suffered from post-surgery depression. Therefore, the fact that Selena declared that Taylor Swift was her only close friend in the entertainment industry and did not mention Francia in the interview, the documentary released in 2022, made Francia disappointed and unfriended Selena.
Last March, Selena mentioned Francia for the first time in an interview with the show Dear after a noisy speech scandal. She claims Francia is “my best friend”.
Selena Gomez confided: “In this life, I have never owed anyone as much as Francia. It is difficult for me to express in words having a friend who did not hesitate for a moment to donate her kidney to me.” “.
