Yolanda Hadid, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star and mum to supermodels Bella and Gigi Hadid, hasn’t shied away from documenting the fact that like herself, 20-year-old Bella and her 17-year-old son Anwar both suffer from Lyme Disease but it’s not as fine as we first thought.

Yolanda, who appeared on Good Day New York on Tuesday morning, revealed that “Bella, you know, Bella is struggling. It’s hard to imagine that this beautiful bright light on the cover of magazines that she could struggle the way that she does.

“You know 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.”

Anwar, on the other hand, seems to be doing well she said: “My son, who has been home with me, is doing great. I think he’s about 90 percent and he’s very determined to get 100 percent and he does the work and does what needs to be done.”

Aww, poor Bella. We hope, like her mum and brother, she can start to feel better soon.
