Bella Hadid suffers from Lyme disease

Bella Hadid attended United For A Lyme-Free World Gala on Thursday in New York City. Her mother Yolanda Hadid was also present at the event, reports JustJared.com.

Yolanda, who has suffered from Lyme disease herself, spoke about how the model is coping with the disease. “Bella is struggling. It’s hard to imagine that this beautiful bright light on the cover of magazines could struggle the way that she does,” Yolanda told Good Day New York.

Yolanda continued, “She’s always tired. She could sleep for 10 hours and wake up (and say), ‘I’m still tired.’ In the younger generation, it comes up like anxiety, severe exhaustion, joint pain, flu-like symptoms, and they just keep struggling over it.”
