Selena Gomez embraced her role as big sister and aunt during a joyful family outing to Disneyland, treating her younger sister Gracie and goddaughter Aubriella to a day of theme park adventures. The 33-year-old actress and singer, known for her role in Only Murders in the Building, shared an inside look at the trip on Instagram, captioning photos with 'Auntie/tia/big sister duties.'
A Day of Rides and Snacks
Gomez, wearing a hooded sweatshirt featuring Minnie Mouse on the back, joined her family for classic Disneyland attractions. They enjoyed The Little Mermaid ride and the flying swings, among other adventures. The star also indulged in her favorite amusement park snacks, munching on corn-on-the-cob and a jumbo turkey leg.
Over a photo with Gracie and another family member, Gomez wrote humorously, 'big sister over here trying to be as cool as they are lol.' Her husband, record producer Benny Blanco, made a brief appearance in a video wearing his hoodie up.
Family Connections
Gracie, 12, is the daughter of Gomez's mother Mandy Teefey and stepfather Brian Teefey, with whom Gomez shares a close bond. Aubriella, five, is the daughter of Gomez's cousin and best friend Priscilla Cosme. Gomez is also godmother to Priscilla's son Aiden, who joined the fun on rides.
Disneyland Love Affair
In a March 2025 joint interview for Spotify, Gomez and Blanco discussed their shared passion for Disneyland while promoting their album, I Said I Love You First. Blanco revealed, 'One of our first songs, we did a little video for it at Disneyland because we love Disneyland so much. It’s actually one of Selena’s favorite places on Earth.'
Gomez agreed, saying, 'It makes me incredibly happy.' While Blanco enjoys rollercoasters, he admitted aversion to The Mad Teacups, joking, 'You put me on a rollercoaster, flip me, dip me, do whatever you want to me, but you put me on the tea cups, and I’m a shell of a human being.' Gomez teased back, 'It was fun to torture you in that way for a second.'
Snack Traditions and Wedding Memories
Blanco noted Gomez's must-have Disneyland snacks: 'a pickle, a corn dog, a huge leg of turkey or all three combined.' Gomez responded, 'I’m trying to do all three at the same time.' The couple visited Disneyland in February of last year, months before their September 2025 wedding at the Sea Crest Nursery in Santa Barbara, California.
Their intimate ceremony included 170 guests like Taylor Swift, Martin Short, and Ed Sheeran. Blanco recalled, 'I was trying so hard not to cry!' while Gomez added, 'All I could do was look at him and I'd be like, “It's crazy we're doing it.” It was fun.'
The Disneyland day ended with Aubriella looking tired but happy, capping off a spirited family outing filled with laughter, rides, and cherished moments.
