Earlier this year, the musician opened up about being diagnosed with Lupus SLE and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder and noted to fans that she feels “lucky to be alive”
Halsey is recovering at home after being hospitalized for a number of days after suffering a seizure. The musician updated fans about her health on social media after they grew curious about a video she shared of herself and her fiancé Avan Jogia, in a hospital room earlier this week.
“I’m home from the hospital now after a few days, so a win is a win,” she wrote on X (formerly Twitter) in response to a fan asking for a general update on how she was feeling. Another inquired about whether the hospital visit was related to her chronic illnesses, which include lupus and the rare type of T-cell disorder that she was diagnosed with in 2022. “I had a seizure,” Halsey responded. “Very scary! Don’t recommend it!”
Beneath the video that the 29-year-old shared on Instagram, she wrote: “Happy Late Bi Visibility Day. This year I’m celebrating by dying with a man by my side (for legal reasons that’s a joke).”
The last time Halsey shared a health update alongside hospital footage, it accompanied the release of “The End,” the first song to be released from her upcoming fifth studio album, The Great Impersonator, out Oct. 25. “Long story short, i’m Lucky to be alive,” she wrote in the caption of a carousel of images following her medical journey. “Short story long, I wrote an album.”
Throughout her career, Hasley has been candid about her health, opening up about her experience being diagnosed with endometriosis in 2016 after having a miscarriage. She also had surgery to address the condition earlier this year. But the revelation of her more recent double disorder diagnosis was unexpected.
“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. You’ve all been so kind so I want to share a bit more,” Halsey shared on Instagram in June. “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.”
