Selena Gomez
The Only Murders in the Building star’s mother, Mandy Teefey, was 16 when she gave birth to the future singer-actor. She and Gomez’s father, Ricardo, were married, but split when Gomez was five. “I blamed my mom a lot because I wanted a family so bad,” Gomez once said on an E! special. “I wanted to have my mom and dad together. I remember just being angry with my mom.”
But she came to appreciate her mother’s sacrifices: “My mom gave up everything for me and had, like, three jobs.”
