| My teen years were taken from me: Bella Hadid, 20, details toll Lyme disease has taken on her life.
Bella Hadid spoke out about her struggle with Lyme disease at a gala event in New York on Thursday.
The model, 20, was diagnosed with the ailment in 2012 and forced her to give up her dream of being an Olympic equestrian.
'My teenage years were taken from me,' she told the gathering for the Global Lyme Alliance Gala, according to People.
Showjumping 'was my dream of my life and what I did every single day until I just stopped and realized I didn’t have the brain power to ride horses anymore, so that was the end of that,' she explained.
Bella, whose mother Yolanda and younger brother Anwar have also been diagnosed with Lyme disease, was an honoree at the event hosted by the nonprofit that funds research and education about the tick-borne disease. |
