Candy Crush new rank up question

Kivany

I've "ranked up" to level 15 and earned 5 lives + a "new friend". I didn't notice any new "friend" what is that?

Hi there- Thanks for posting on King Care. I am sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Please could you share a little more information regarding the problem you are experiencing. 

Are you playing one of our feature games?

Is there an error message?

Thanks!

Hi, I don't know what other way to explain it The new rank up on Candy Crush. When I ranked up to level 15, one of the things it said it was giving me was a new friend. I thought that was odd, but I didn't see any new friends so I'm not sure what the developers meant by that award.

It doesn't say friend. You got a new "frame". Just the look of your portrait.
