Selena Gomez touched hearts with an emotional 12th birthday message to her younger sister, Gracie.
Taking to Instagram on Thursday, Gomez shared a carousel of photos and videos featuring her half-sister, Gracie Elliot Teefey.
In the accompanying caption, Gomez wrote, “Happy birthday to my baby sissy.”
“As I cry writing this, my heart melts because I know you know I’m always on your side,” the singer and actress added in a tender note.
“No matter what. I love you baby girl,” Gomez concluded.
The collection of shared pictures and videos featured endearing throwback moments with Gracie. The cover image prominently displayed a young Gracie alongside her older sister Gomez, who was seen affectionately kissing her tiny hand.
Meanwhile, other photographs included them in matching pajamas, sharing cozy moments, and posing together on the red carpet.
Selena Gomez and Gracie Elliot Teefey are half-sisters; the Only Murders in the Building actress’s mother, Mandy Teefey, shares Gracie with Gomez’s stepfather, Brian. The “Who Says” singer, on the other hand, is the daughter of Mandy and Rick Gomez.
