Selena Gomez's Kidney Donor Ex-BFF Blames Pop Star's Decision To Drink For Friendship Ending
May 9 2023, Published 2:55 p.m. ET
Francia Raisa blamed her fallout with Selena Gomez on the pop star's decision to drink post-kidney donation surgery, RadarOnline.com has learned.
Raisa donated her kidney to then-best friend Gomez, who suffered from life-threatening complications due to Lupus, in the summer of 2017.
Despite the selfless act, the pair had a falling out shortly after but never fully explained what went down.
Now, Raisa's own father has confirmed that his daughter cut ties with her ex-bff after she called her out for drinking.
The How I Met Your Father actress' dad, El Cucuy, a famous Spanish radio host, discussed the feud on-air.
During an interview on Primer Impacto, El Cucuy revealed details on what went down between his daughter and Gomez six years ago.
When asked why Raisa wasn't featured in Gomez's documentary, Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, the radio personality gave a blunt response.
El Cucuy didn't shy from the fact that his daughter and her kidney recipient had a public falling out.
The father alleged that Raisa called out Gomez for drinking after the successful surgery. El Cucuy claimed his daughter told the former Disney Channel star that she did not donate her kidney so that Gomez could drink heavily — and potentially damage the life-saving organ.
