DUBAI: US-Palestinian-Dutch model Bella Hadid offered fans a glimpse into how she treats her autoimmune disorders in an Instagram post this weekend.
On Friday, the 24-year-old posted a series of photos showing her hooked up to an intravenous drip. “Living with a few chronic autoimmune disease = always finding time for my IVs,” she captioned the post.
Hadid was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2012 alongside with younger brother Anwar, 21, and their mother, Yolanda, 57.
In 2016, Bella opened up to People magazine about dealing with Lyme disease while being in the spotlight.
“Life isn’t always what it looks like on the outside, and the hardest part of this journey is to be judged by the way you look instead of the way you feel,” she said at the time.

Ashi’s creations have been worn by celebrities and stars including Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Hudson, Kylie Minogue, Penelope Cruz, Deepika Padukone, Sonam Kapoor, and Queen Rania of Jordan.
Ashi became the first couturier from the Gulf region to join the Federation de la Haute Couture in Paris as a guest member in 2023. He was also the first Gulf designer included in the BoF 500 list, the Business of Fashion’s index of people shaping the fashion industry in 2023.
At the awards ceremony, “Sinners” claimed the Actor Award for best movie cast, a victory that sets up a face-off with “One Battle After Another” for the prestigious Best Picture prize at the upcoming Oscars.
Delroy Lindo accepted the Actor Award trophy with fellow “Sinners” cast members standing behind him on stage in Los Angeles. The Warner Bros movie tells the story of two brothers who set up a juke joint in the segregation-era US South and are confronted by a vampire in a tale that celebrates blues music and Black culture.
“Every single day we brought ourselves, we brought our hearts, we brought our souls, we brought our spirits to this endeavor,” Lindo said at the ceremony, which was streamed live on Netflix. “To be recognized by you all, thank you does not even begin to encompass the gratitude that we feel.”
“Sinners” star Michael B. Jordan, who plays two roles - brothers Smoke and Stack - was named best film actor. Jordan thanked his fellow nominees in a field that included “Marty Supreme” star Timothee Chalamet and “One Battle After Another” actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
“This ride has been unbelievable and I thank you for welcoming me in and making me feel seen,” Jordan said.
