Selena Gomez’s kidney donor has broken her silence about their rumored feud — and Gomez’s recent wedding — a new interview on Univision’s Primer Impacto.

“I know she’s getting married, and I’m very happy for her,” Francia Raisa said in a clip posted to reporter Magaly Ortiz’s Instagram on Thursday, September 25.

“And look… she has a life and she is already a billionaire and I am grateful that I could do that for her,” added the How I Met Your Father alum, 37, according to translations added by a Reddit user.

According to Page Six, Raisa was not on the star-studded guest list at the Rare Beauty mogul’s September 27 wedding to Benny Blanco, amid years of rumors that they’re feuding.

Asked about claims that she was “disgusted” by her friend’s reckless behavior after the 2017 transplant, Raisa insisted, “I’ve never said anything,” adding that she heard from TMZ about rumors she was “angry” at the Only Murders in the Building star, 33, for smoking.

“No one knows what’s going on, and neither she nor I are talking about it. One day, maybe we will address it,” the former Grown-ish actress continued..

Raisa’s father, L.A. radio personality Renán Almendárez Coello, claimed to Primer Impacto in 2022 that his daughter confronted Gomez about her drinking.

But in her new interview, Raisa told Primer Impacto that she hadn’t spoken to him for eight years, and noted that it’s not her place to tell Gomez how to treat her body.

“If you are going to donate a dollar to St. Jude or somewhere else, you’re not going to call to say, ‘Hey, what are you doing with my dollar?’” Raisa explained.

“I am grateful that I am alive and I can say that I have saved a life.”
