Selena Gomez shared an emotional Instagram story about President Donald Trump’s threat of mass deportations, which sparked fears of family separations. She later deleted the story, posting another that read, “Apparently it’s not okay to show empathy for people.” The 32-year-old Texas actress recently opened up about her family’s immigration journey, which began in the 1970s when her aunt crossed the border from Mexico hiding in the back of a truck. Her paternal grandparents followed their daughter to the United States and later welcomed Selena’s father#for #you #viral_video #fyp #forupage #usa_tiktok #canada_life #america #salenagomez #افغانی_تیک_تاک #bollywoodsong #hollywood

After deleting her post, the star shared another story in which she stated that apparently, it is not acceptable to show empathy for people.

This story was also deleted afterward.

Illegal immigration is a topic that particularly affects the Mexican-American star, who has reportedly already discussed her family’s immigration story dating back to the 1970s in interviews.

Her aunt is said to have crossed the border between Mexico and the United States by hiding in the back of a truck. Shortly after, her paternal grandparents are said to have joined her.

Once settled in the United States, they are said to have welcomed their son Ricardo, Selena’s father.
