Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake took to Instagram on August 1, 2025, to share his diagnosis. He wrote, "Among other things, I’ve been battling some health issues, and was diagnosed with Lyme disease, which I don’t say so you feel bad for me –– but to shed some light on what I’ve been up against behind the scenes. If you’ve experienced this disease or know someone who has — then you’re aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically. When I first got the diagnosis I was shocked for sure. But, at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness."

Bella Hadid and Yolanda Hadid

Mother and daughter, Yolanda and Bella Hadid, both battled Lyme disease. Yolanda first publicly spoke about it in 2012 and even authored Believe Me about living with Lyme. Bella, on the other hand, has spoken extensively about pain, brain fog, and the long road to recovery. She reportedly went through over 100 days of medical treatment.
