After years in the limelight, the former Wizards of Waverly Place star achieves unimaginable stardom. But just as she reaches a new peak, an unexpected turn pulls her into darkness. This uniquely raw and intimate documentary spans her journey into a new light.
Over the past six years, Gomez has had her share of media attention. Gomez went through a very public breakup with singer Justin Bieber in 2013 and checked herself into The Meadows rehabilitation center in 2014. She continued to be an advocate for mental health awareness, including through her Rare Impact Fund.
It was in 2017 that the entrepreneur shared she had undergone a kidney transplant as a result of Lupus.
