Selena Gomez‘s mother Mandy Teefey has hit out a report about her feelings towards the star’s wedding to Benny Blanco.
The Disney star, 33, wed the music producer in Santa Barbara on Saturday in front of 170 guests, including superstar pals Taylor Swift, actor Paul Rudd, and her Only Murders in the Building co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short.
At the ceremony, Selena was walked down the aisle by her grandfather David Michael Cornett, who she previously revealed ‘raised her’ after Mandy gave birth at just 16.
Following the nuptials, a report from Page Six read: ‘Selena Gomez reportedly chose her grandfather, not her mom, to walk her down the aisle at her nuptials with Benny Blanco, leaving Mandy Teefey “shattered.”’
Mandy swiftly responded to shoot down the claims, as she hit back by replying to the post: ‘This is ludacris! It was heartwarming him walk her down the aisle! [sic]’

Following the nuptials, a report from Page Six read: ‘Selena Gomez reportedly chose her grandfather, not her mom, to walk her down the aisle at her nuptials with Benny Blanco, leaving Mandy Teefey “shattered”‘ – yet she soon hit back at the claims
Her mother was in attendance for the big day and jumped to Instagram to gush over the newlyweds and shared that her grandfather David had been asked to walk her down the aisle
Aside from her sentiment about the report, Mandy also joked with fans about her misspelling of ludicrous, after she wrote ‘ludacris’.
A number of followers noted the gaffe and responded: ‘Ludacris is a rapper. Ludicrous perhaps… Ludacris walking her down the aisle woulda been extra.’
Mandy responded: ‘You’re perhaps right! Touché’.
Last week, Mandy took to Instagram to gush over the newlyweds and shared the news that her grandfather had been asked to walk her down the aisle.
The former Disney channel star has a close relationship with her maternal grandparents David and Debbie – and expressed back in 2023 that she was living with them at the time.
Selena has also developed a bond with stepdad Brian Teefy, while her relationship with biological father Ricardo Joel is reportedly not as close.
Along with sharing a photo of the bride and groom, the star’s mother wrote in the caption: ‘What a perfect celebration for the most kick a** couple I know!
‘The evening couldn’t have been more beautiful and perfect! Absolutely flawless!’ she added. ‘All my love to my beautiful daughter @selenagomez and to the greatest son in law @itsbennyblanco!!!’

Gomez’s mom concluded: ‘It was a fairytale come true and it was beyond heartwarming watching my father walk her down the aisle!!! XO.’
Back in 2023, the Wolves songstress gave a little into her relationship with her maternal grandparents – when she revealed that she was living with them at the time in her Encino mansion.
In an Instagram reel shared by Food Network, Gomez talked about what she tends to eat on a regular Tuesday night while at home.
The star said: ‘I’m definitely eating something my nana made probably the night before. I live with my grandparents, so we are always in the kitchen, always cooking, and we have leftovers.’
In December, her maternal grandmother jumped to social media to share her excitement over Gomez and Blanco’s engagement.

At the time, she uploaded a snap as she posed with Selena and Benny as well as the pop star’s grandfather.
‘Bring on the happy-ever after,’ she penned in the caption, followed by an assortment of red heart emojis.
Selena has also previously opened up about the relationship she has with her father, such as during a past interview with Rolling Stone.
When it came to her life in the spotlight and being an actress, the former Disney channel star explained that her biological dad ‘didn’t want to be a part’ of it.
‘So it was really me and my mom, our journey,’ the singer further told the outlet back in 2022.
On Sunday, Blanco shared more pictures which appeared to have been taken after the lovebirds said ‘I do’
