Selena Gomez wanted to put aside the controversy over the friendship drama with actress Francia Raisa, but the story took an unexpected turn.

The drama between Selena Gomez and her best friend, kidney donor of 15 years, Francia Raisa, broke out more than a year ago and has gradually subsided over the past several months. Until this morning (July 27), female singer Love You Like a Love Song suddenly reignited controversy when she officially posted a series of photos taken with Francia on her 426 million-follower Instagram to wish her friend and co-worker a happy birthday. Recent times have dispelled rumors of retirement and ungratefulness.

“Happy birthday to this special girl. No matter what life throws at us, I still love you so much @franciaraisa,” the female singer said. The post reached nearly 4 million likes after 4 hours, but the comment section was filled with fiercely controversial comments. It was thought that this was a post that completely erased the animosity between both stars, but what was most notable was the harsh reaction from actress Francia Raisa.

Selena Gomez posted a congratulatory post to Francia, dispelling rumors of retirement and affirming her love for her friend. However, public opinion reacted harshly

Selena Gomez posted for 4 hours and directly tagged Francia Raisa’s account to get the owner’s attention. Worth mentioning, from the moment the female singer shared the photo until now, Francia has not had any response and did not even like the post confirming Selena’s good friendship. Worth mentioning on her personal Instagram, Francia continues to repost wishes from dozens of other close friends on her story, posting clips and photos of her happy birthday party and shows no signs of stopping.

Francia Raisa completely ignored Selena’s move, and this heated up the heated argument about the two’s friendship drama. Fans also discovered that Francia still hasn’t followed her famous best friend after the unfriending that caused a stir in public opinion a year ago even though Selena still follows Francia. But even though she is no longer friends, Francia can still see posts when tagged, especially tagged posts from Instagram superstars like Selena. In addition, neither Selena nor Francia appeared at the other’s birthday party in the past 2 weeks. The pictures Selena posted along with her birthday post are all old photos taken with Francia before the scandal broke out.

The series of photos Selena shared are all old photos with Francia, there are no recent photos of the two

Francia continuously updates her personal Instagram, reposting a series of birthday wishes from more than a dozen friends, but there is no sign of any reaction to Selena’s post.

Francia also shared photos of herself enjoying her birthday party but without Selena’s appearance

Francia has not followed Selena’s account since the drama broke out last year, but Selena still follows her best friend to this day.

At Selena’s recent birthday party, Francia also did not appear. The two are said to no longer be close friends and neither attended each other’s birthday this year. Remember last year, Francia appeared in most of the photos at Selena’s birthday party

Remember that in an interview with Rolling Stone, Selena Gomez affirmed that she only has one close friend in the entertainment industry, Taylor Swift. Meanwhile, Francia is also active in the entertainment industry as an actress. Selena herself also posted a post thanking Francia for donating her kidney in 2017, and affirmed that the two were soulmates. Before Selena’s statement, Francia officially unfriended her and kept this status until now.

The most surprising factor after Selena’s reconciliation post was the public’s reaction. Many people defend Selena Gomez for her positive attitude and maintaining their friendship regardless of the rumors swirling about them both. But conflicting opinions appear even more frequently, most of them favoring Selena’s constantly changing attitude and Francia’s harsh behavior.

It is known that this is not the first time Francia has ignored the moves of her former best friend. In March of this year, 4 months after the friendship controversy, Selena mentioned Francia in an interview while participating in the show Dear and also affirmed that Francia was “my best friend”. The Wizards of Waverly Place star’s actions were considered a late save by the audience, and Francia had no reaction or response to Selena’s answer.

Also in this interview, Selena Gomez confided: “In this life, I have never owed anyone as much as Francia. It’s hard for me to express in words when I have a friend who doesn’t hesitate for a second.” any minute to donate your kidney? In 2017, Francia donated one of her kidneys to Selena while the Ice Cream singer faced a dangerous situation due to lupus. Sacrificing her kidney for her friend, Francia Raisa’s health deteriorated and she also suffered from post-surgery depression.

A few months after the controversy, Selena Gomez was accused of trying to save her image and friendship when mentioning Francia on the show Dear. Previously, when responding to the friendship controversy, the female singer affirmed: “I’m sorry for not mentioning all the friends I know.”
