Singer Halsey recently took to social media to get transparent about her health and current illness.
On Tuesday, June 4, Halsey released her latest single, ‘The End,’ which will be featured on her upcoming fifth studio album. Additionally, the singer took to Instagram to share a carouselwith fans.
In the first slide of the post, Halsey says that she “feels like an old lady” as she rubs the back of her legs. A green bandage is seen around the elbow of her right arm.
“I told myself I’m giving myself two more years to be sick… At 30, I’m having a rebirth, and I’m not going to be sick, and I’m gonna look super hot and have lots of energy, and I’m just gonna get to redo my twenties in my thirties,” she says to someone sitting off-camera.
In the following slide, Halsey is seen sitting in a chair next to medical equipment with a mask over her mouth. In the video, she tells fans, “Today is day one.” Meanwhile, the last slide in the carousel shows various clips of the singer in the hospital.
Furthermore, Hasley captioned the post:
“long story short, im Lucky to be alive. short story long, i wrote an album. it begins with The End. out now…”
Additionally, the singer did not explicitly share the illness she’s battling. However, the 29-year-old tagged the Lupus Research Alliance and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society while concluding her caption.
NBC News reports lupus is a “chronic autoimmune disease that can damage the skin, joints, organs or other parts of the body.” Meanwhile, leukemia and lymphoma are “types of cancer that can affect blood cells and the immune system.”
The outlet adds that it contacted the singer’s representative for comment. However, they have yet to receive a response.
PEOPLE reports that Halsey has also been transparent about her battle with endometriosis. Mayo Clinic adds that endometriosis is an “often-painful condition in which tissue that is similar to the inner lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus.” The condition can lead to discomfort during one’s menstrual cycle and lead to fertility issues.
Social media users shared prayers for Halsey in The Shade Room’s comment section.
Instagram user @aprnbeauty wrote, “Praying for Halsey! Shes so sweet and talented! Hate for anyone to be battling any illness ”
As The Shade Room previously reported, another health update was reported about fellow celebrity Wendy Williams in mid-May. At the time, it was shared that Williams’ guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, closed on the sale of Williams’ lavish penthouse in New York City.
The penthouse was reportedly sold for $3.75 million. However, this was allegedly significantly less than the residence’s previous purchase price.
Additionally, it was reported that Williams’ “incapacitated” state prompted the sale of her penthouse. To note, Williams’ team publicly revealed her diagnosis of aphasia and dementia in February, per The Shade Room.
