American singer Selena Gomez, whose girlfriend gave her a kidney, it turns out, underwent an operation four months ago.

However, Selena told about surgical intervention only now. As it turned out, in May Gomez arrived in Chicago to support her boyfriend The Weeknd during his concert.

Suddenly the star became ill and she was immediately hospitalized. In the hospital, the actress was informed that her kidneys were being denied because of lupus, writes Contact Music with reference to TMZ.

Selene was in the queue for a donor kidney, but her close friend, actress Francia Raisa, suggested that Gomez give her.

"Selena did not ask France to make an analysis of compatibility - France is such a person who himself would suggest doing it for the sake of any of his friends," said a source close to the girls.

Recall, that Selena Gomez is sick with lupus, it became known in May 2014. Since then, the disease has repeatedly put a star on a hospital bed. So, in September 2016 Selena came to the rehabilitation center, where she was treated for 90 days.
