The 25-year-old was seen going casual in a plain white tee with blue jeans. She pulled her brunette locks up into a loose bun while taking a stroll on the street.

Earlier this week, Gomez explained that her actress BFF, Francia Raisa, who starred in The Secret Life of the American Teenager, donated a kidney to her.

The former Disney channel star was in need of a kidney transplant as part of her lupus treatment. Gomez took to Instagram to share a photo of herself alongside Raisa in hospital beds on the day of the operation.

I’m very aware some of my fans had noticed I was laying low for part of the summer and questioning why I wasn’t promoting my new music, which I was extremely proud of. So I found out I needed to get a kidney transplant due to my Lupus and was recovering. It was what I needed to do for my overall health. I honestly look forward to sharing with you, soon my journey through these past several months as I have always wanted to do with you. Until then I want to publicly thank my family and incredible team of doctors for everything they have done for me prior to and post-surgery. And finally, there aren’t words to describe how I can possibly thank my beautiful friend Francia Raisa. She gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me. I am incredibly blessed. I love you so much sis. Lupus continues to be very misunderstood but progress is being made.
