Bella Hadid is battling an ‘unknown hell’ and her mother can’t do anything but feel ‘hopelessness’

Supermodel Bella Hadid has returned to the hospital for another round of treatment as she continues her long battle with Lyme disease. The 28-year-old model shared photos on Instagram on September 17, 2025, showing herself connected to IV bags in a hospital bed. With the simple caption “I’m sorry I always go MIA I love you guys,” Hadid apologized to her followers for her absence from public life.

The model’s hospitalization comes after more than a decade of struggling with the tick-borne illness. Bella was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2012 alongside her mother Yolanda Hadid and younger brother Anwar. Since then, she has been fighting what her mother describes as chronic neurological Lyme disease, which can cause severe symptoms including memory problems, facial paralysis, and extreme fatigue.
