Selena Gomez Posted a Ton of Photos From Her Friend’s Bachelorette Weekend

Selena Gomez spent this past weekend in the Hamptons for her friend Connar Franklin’s bachelorette party. While Gomez posted plenty of shots on her Instagram Story of the group hanging out on a boat in bikinis, she saved the best photos of the weekend for her grid. “My sweet girl @connarfranklin I’m so proud to know you,” Gomez wrote. “So happy to spend a weekend celebrating the future with all these amazing women!”

Pictures included dressy dinner shots of Gomez and the bride-to-be, as well as more candid group shots of everyone on the water or goofing around. Over 4.2 million Instagram users liked the carousel of images.

Gomez doesn’t always share personal photos of her life and friends like this. But she previously celebrated Franklin’s engagement on her grid in February: “@connarfranklin is getting married! So happy ♥️,” Gomez wrote then.

Franklin appears regularly on Gomez’s Instagram, a testament to their close friendship.

Franklin, meanwhile, shared a stunning video of her bachelorette weekend, giving a close look at the décor and festivities.

Gomez’s weekend in the Hamptons comes after she celebrated her 31st birthday with two parties. The star reflected on turning 31 in a candid Instagram post, asking fans to donate to her Rare Impact Fund if they wanted to give her anything.

“I am thankful for so much in my life and one of the things I am most thankful for is the work we’ve been able to do with the Rare Impact Fund through @Rarebeauty. Because of YOU we’ve been able to raise awareness and increase access to mental health services for young people. This is my true passion in life. People keep asking me what I want for my birthday, and I tell everyone the same thing please do not get me anything but if you want to do something for my birthday, please donate to the Rare Impact Fund. If you have the means, consider donating to help us make a difference. I LOVE YOU ALL!”
