The story between Selena Gomez and her best friend who donated her kidney – Francia Raisa – has once again become the center of discussion after Francia suddenly broke her silence with an emotional video, amid rumors that she was not invited to Selena’s wedding.

In the video posted on her personal Instagram, Francia looked emotional but determined. She spoke slowly:
“There are things I thought I would never have to say, but maybe it’s time to clarify things. I don’t regret my decision to donate my kidney. But I’ve learned that sometimes friendships don’t last forever because of an act of sacrifice.”
This statement quickly caused a stir on social networks. Thousands of fans of Selena Gomez and Francia Raisa argued fiercely under the post. Some defended Selena, saying that the media was distorting the truth. However, many criticized the singer for being “ungrateful” and “turning her back on the person who saved her life.”

From a close friendship to a bitter rift
Selena Gomez and Francia Raisa were once inseparable best friends. In 2017, when Selena faced serious complications from lupus, Francia volunteered to donate a kidney to save her life. After the surgery, the two often shared intimate photos, and Selena even called Francia “the hero of my life.”
But over time, the friendship seemed to have cracked. At the end of 2022, fans discovered that Selena no longer followed Francia on social media, and vice versa. Rumors of a conflict began to spread when Francia commented cryptically under an interview of Selena, where she said “my only close friend in the entertainment industry is Taylor Swift.”
Francia left only three short words: “Interesting.”
That seemingly gentle answer sparked a wave of debate that lasted for months.
Rumors of being excluded from the wedding – the last straw
Last week, a series of posts on US entertainment news sites said that Francia was not on the guest list for Selena’s wedding – which was supposed to take place privately later this year. The news caused an explosion of the online community, especially after Francia posted the above video, as if indirectly confirming all the speculations were true.

A person claiming to be “close” to Francia revealed on TikTok:
“Francia was really hurt. She didn’t want fame, she just wanted to be respected as a friend who sacrificed a part of her body. But when she wasn’t invited to the wedding, she felt like she was erased from Selena’s life.”
Selena remains silent – but fans are divided
Selena Gomez has yet to make any official comments about Francia’s video. However, many fans believe that Selena is choosing to stay silent to avoid “adding fuel to the fire”.
However, on social network X (Twitter), a series of comments criticizing the singer appeared:
“Francia deserves more respect.”
“No one should be treated like that, especially when she saved Selena’s life.”

“Selena always talks about gratitude, but her actions are different.”
Some loyal fans of Selena argued that personal relationships cannot be judged from the outside, and that there may have been private problems between them that no one knows about.
Whatever the truth, Francia Raisa’s video has reopened an emotional and controversial chapter in the lives of two women who were once hailed as icons of rare friendship in Hollywood.
And now, the public can only wait to see whether Selena Gomez will break her silence – or let this “emotional storm” continue to rage on social networks.
