“What a perfect celebration for the most kick ass couple I know,” the matriarch wrote via Instagram Sunday.

“It was a fairytale come true and it was beyond heartwarming watching my father walk her down the aisle!!! XO,” Teefey, 49, concluded the heartfelt post.

While Teefey limited the comments on the post, several fans questioned why her ex-husband and Selena’s father, Ricardo Joel Gomez, didn’t give her away.

“Why didn’t her father do it,” one person questioned, as another chimed in, “Why not her own dad 😢😢😢😢.”

Reps for Selena were not immediately available to return Page Six’s requests for comment.

Selena, 33, has vaguely opened up about her relationship with her father, and in 2022, she told Rolling Stone that he “didn’t want to be a part” of her life as an actress.

“So it was really me and my mom, our journey,” she said.

In 2013, the Disney alum reflected on her childhood with Ricardo, 50, via an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, stating that he would take her to Hooters to watch San Antonio Spurs games when she was 7 years old.

“He started noticing that when I would come, with my little pigtails, all the waitresses would be like, ‘Hey!’ So he ended up half spending time with me but with all those cute girls coming over,” she quipped. “And that kind of became our thing.” 

Mandy and Richardo were married from 1992 to 1997, and she later remarried Brian Teefey in 2006.

Mandy, meanwhile, shared that her father gave Selena away after the Daily Mail reported that she was “shattered” the actress didn’t pick her.
