Halsey reveals the illness she has been battling with
The New Americana singer, a mother of one, took to her Instagram to share a message glimpsing her struggles. She wrote, “Long story short, I’m lucky to be alive. Short story long, I wrote an album.”
The caption was accompanied by a series of videos documenting her journey fighting the illness. While she didn’t disclose the exact illness, she did tag lupus and leukaemia charities, leaving fans concerned and eager for more details.
“I told myself I’m giving myself two more years to be sick. When I’m 30, I’m having a rebirth,” the singer was heard saying in one clip. “I’m not going to be sick. I’m going to look super-hot and have lots of energy. I’m just going to get to redo my 20s and 30s,” she added while massaging her legs on the couch.
