Mandy and Selena were not rich though. Selena recalls that sometimes they didn't even have money for gas. Mandy spent everything she had on her daughter's needs taking her to museums, oceanariums, and concerts. And the woman succeeded in bringing up her only daughter and in setting a good example for her. Later on, when Selena Gomez achieved her first success and became famous, Mandy married Bryan Teeffee. And so Selena got a double last name, Teefee-Gomez. In 2013, Selena's half-sister Gracie Elliot was born.

Selena Gomez – Personal Life

At the age of 12, Selena Gomez put a «purity ring» on her finger. This is a well-known American tradition, which obliges a girl wearing a ring to practice abstinence until marriage. However, Selena's silver ring engraved with the words: «True Love Waits» did not prevent her from breaking her vow.

That is the fault of Justin Bieber, a pop singer and an icon for a million teenagers all over the globe. He noticed the Latin American beauty with a baby face in 2010. Or maybe it was the other way round, and it was Selena who, being two years older than Justin and knew show business better, was tempted to protect this bewildered young man. Anyway, their attraction was mutual.

The romance caused rage on the part of Justin's female fans. During the first months of their relationship, Selena’s Twitter account was exploding with the threats of girls. Nevertheless, Selena and Justin's love story developed so rapidly that her purity ring was put off pretty soon, in January 2011. The media posted the shots of the lovers kissing passionately on the beach.

It seems as though the lessons Selena taught him on show business benefited Justin a lot.

He never rejected attention of his female fans, and at least once he was spotted flirting with a Victoria’s Secret model Barbara Palvin in public. Selena’s told that it was precisely Justin's flirt with other women that caused their break up.
