Halsey recently took to Instagram to open up about their physical health and share some deeply personal news with fans. In a heartfelt post, the 29-year-old songstress expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support surrounding their latest single, “The End,” while shedding light on recent diagnoses that have been kept under wraps until now.
“Thank you guys for the unbelievable amount of love for ‘The End’ and the support you’ve shown me since its release,” Halsey began, acknowledging the outpouring of affection from fans. “I realize everyone is catching up with news I’ve held in for a very long time, and I wasn’t sure how much I wanted to share.”
But share they did, offering a candid glimpse into their health journey over the past couple of years. In 2022, Halsey revealed, they were diagnosed with Lupus SLE, a chronic autoimmune disease, as well as a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. “You’ve all been so kind so I want to share a bit more. In 2022, I was first diagnosed with Lupus SLE and then a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. Both of which are currently being managed or in remission; and both of which I will likely have for the duration of my life.”
Despite the daunting nature of these diagnoses, Halsey reassured fans that both conditions are currently being managed or in remission, albeit likely to remain part of their life’s narrative indefinitely. “After a rocky start, I slowly got everything under control with the help of amazing doctors,” Halsey continued. “After 2 years, I’m feeling better and I’m more grateful than ever to have music to turn to. I can’t wait to get back where I belong: With you all 🤍 Singing and screaming my heart out.”
The vulnerability and resilience displayed by Halsey in sharing their health struggles underscore the depth of their connection with fans. By inviting them into this deeply personal aspect of their life, Halsey not only fosters a sense of empathy and understanding but also reinforces the importance of seeking support and solidarity during times of adversity.
As Halsey navigates the complexities of managing their health while continuing to pursue their passion for music, fans can rest assured knowing that they are not alone in their journey. With each lyric and melody, Halsey continues to inspire and uplift, proving that even in the face of adversity, the power of music remains an unwavering source of solace and strength.
