<p>In 2017, Selena shockingly announced that she had to undergo a kidney transplant due Lupus condition that caused her kidney failure and that <strong>it was her good friend Francia Raisa that saved her life by donating one of hers. </strong></p>

<p>A few months after the announcement, some were curious as to why the two stopped all interactions on social media, with many even questioning the state of their friendship.</p>

<p><strong>Then, rumours began to swirl that Francia was no longer talking to Selena after she decided to drink excessively</strong>, which could potentially ruin her kidneys once again. This looked really bad on Selena&#8217;s part as people questioned why she would ever lose touch with someone who risked their life to save yours. </p>



<p>However, rumours can now be put aside as <strong>they subtly confirmed that they are still close by liking each other&#8217;s recent Instagram posts. </strong></p>

</div></figure>



<p>As Selena stated that she doesn&#8217;t have social media on her phone because she wants to protect her mental health, even just liking her friend&#8217;s post is a big step. It could mean that likely heard about the rumours and subtly wants to put a stop to it. This proves that not all relationships need to be made public and Selena and Francia are proof of that! </p>
