"No matter where life takes us, I love you," she wrote.

The Instagram post featured three adorable snaps of the pair over the years.

In May, the 35-year-old Grown-ish star appeared to reignite speculation of a serious falling out with Selena after Francia unfollowed her.

The initial feud rumors had kicked off in 2022 when the pair seemingly threw shade at one another after Selena called Taylor Swift her "only friend in the industry," which Francia publicly hit back at.

Prior to then, the stars were thick as thieves, with Francia donating her kidney to the Only Murders in the Building star amid her complications with Lupus.

Per Francia's father, the kidney transplant is believed to be at the root of their subsequent alleged feud.

Why did Selena Gomez and Francia Raisa fall out?

In December 2022, Francia's father, radio personality El Cucuy, revealed that the friends got into a disagreement about Selena's drinking habits post-transplant, as such behavior can damage a kidney.

After Francia dodged paparazzi questions about her decision to unfollow the Rare Beauty founder on Instagram earlier this year, she called out Selena's fans for their horrific bullying of her, which included death threats.

Thankfully, it seems that the drama is water under the bridge at this point, as Francia has now refollowed Selena in addition to liking the birthday tribute.
