In a recent episode of the Apple TV+ series Dear, Selena Gomez discussed her struggle with her health.
The pop diva and actress revealed in it that the lupus medicine she is taking causes her weight to fluctuate and that her 2014 lupus diagnosis came with a stroke warning.
It was a lot to hear from a doctor that you «could have had a stroke onstage, you could have died.»
However, I didn’t let it sink in because I didn’t want to absorb it, as the veteran of Only Murders in the Building admitted on the program.
She continued, «People just went with it because my weight would change continuously because I would be taking different drugs. I was being made fun of for putting on weight as a result of my lupus.
The «Good for You» singer even acknowledged that she «lied» when she said the criticism didn’t affect her.
«I was posting these things saying it doesn’t bother me because I didn’t want it to bother other people who are experiencing the same thing,» she continued.
«I just find it to be so unfair; I don’t believe anyone deserves to feel inferior.»
