Grand Prairie native Selena Gomez was sued Thursday by investors who accuse the actress of fraud and breach of contract relating to her mental health and wellness company Wondermind, according to documents obtained by The Dallas Morning News.
The suit, which was filed in Delaware federal court by investor groups Wondermind SRS 44, LLC and Bespoke Wondermind SPV I, LLC, names Gomez as well as her mother Mandy Teefey, former Wondermind executive and co-founder Daniella Pierson, and the Wondermind Global company.
“The Defendants falsely represented that the Company had the infrastructure, leadership, and resources necessary for the Company to launch into a profitable, one-of-its-kind mental health and wellness platform,” the lawsuit says.
Wondermind and representatives for Gomez did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The News.
The plaintiffs say in the complaint that they invested nearly $1.2 million in the wellness company. The suit alleges they were told that Gomez would be closely involved in building and marketing for the company, but that she wasn’t.
“Gomez purported to sign a contract obligating her to perform and then ignored it. The partnerships did not exist. The initiatives never materialized. The app was never built. And for three years, while the Company quietly collapsed around them, not one of its founders, officers, or directors said a word to the investors whose money was funding the collapse,” the complaint says.
The filing says the investors learned of those failures through a September 2025 news article in The Cut. The publication detailed the collapse of the company.
The investors are seeking to recover their investment in Wondermind and any other fees or relief, according to the complaint.
