Pop star Halsey has opened up about a private health battle that has left her grateful to be alive. In a candid Instagram Q&A on Thursday, April 22, the “Without Me” singer answered fan questions about her personal life and upcoming music. When asked about her “scariest health experience,” Halsey shared a harrowing story that she had never publicly disclosed before. “I had a miscarriage a few years ago, and it nearly killed me,” she wrote. “I lost litres of blood, and I was rushed to the emergency room. I had to have surgery, and the doctors were telling me that I was going to die.” Halsey described the experience as “the scariest moment of my life.” She admitted that she had struggled to come to terms with it and had kept it a secret from the public until now. “I’ve never talked about that before, but I’ve always wanted to,” she said. “I’m sharing this because I want other people who have had miscarriages to know that they’re not alone. It’s something that happens to so many of us, and it’s nothing to be ashamed of.” Halsey went on to praise the medical team that saved her life. She also expressed gratitude for the support she received from her friends, family, and fans. “I’m so lucky to be alive today,” she said. “I’m so grateful for the people who took care of me, and I’m so grateful for my fans who have always been there for me.” Halsey’s revelation has sparked an outpouring of support from fans and fellow artists. Many have praised her for her bravery in sharing her story and for shedding light on the often-silent issue of miscarriage. The singer’s announcement comes just days after she released her new single, “So Good,” which she described as “a song about finding hope and joy in the midst of darkness.” The song’s lyrics include the line, “I’ve been to hell and back, but I’m still here.” Halsey’s resilience and determination have inspired many, and her story is a reminder that even in the face of adversity, there is always hope for a brighter future.
