Selena Gomez: Actress and Singer with SLE

In 2017, Selena Gomez revealed she had been diagnosed with lupus. Lupus can cause various problems, and, sadly for Selena, her immune system attacked her kidneys. Though she received aggressive treatment, she ended up with renal failure and had a kidney transplant in 2017. Her friend, Francia Raisa, donated the organ. Gomez shared the news by posting a photo on Instagram of the two women at the hospital. Gomez told the audience at the Lupus Research Alliance annual gala in November of that year that the transplant was tied to SLE.
She told the audience, “After undergoing so many tests to monitor my kidneys, my doctors told me I have lupus nephritis, one of those complications from lupus. They said I would be needing a kidney transplant.”
Though only a minority of people with lupus experience kidney failure, Selena has shown it is possible to live a full life despite the disease.
