Selena Gomez unfollows Theresa Marie
Selena Gomez recently made headlines after she quietly unfollowed her former assistant and close friend Theresa Marie Mingus. The timing of her actions has raised a lot of eyebrows, as it happened just around the time when rumors about Selena’s fiancé, Benny Blanco, allegedly subscribed to Theresa’s OF account. While there are currently no official confirmations for this, netizens have gone crazy with the accusations.
Moreover, things got more suspicious after some fans pointed out how Theresa recently posted about Benny, including his People’s “S*xiest Man Alive” feature. Other fans also claimed that she visited Benny’s home while Selena wasn’t around. As of now, Benny and Theresa still follow each other, and Theresa still follows Selena despite her unfollowing of Theresa.
