Following concerns about her health, Bella Hadid posted some revealing photos taken backstage at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, highlighting her recent return to modeling.
As a wellness advocate, I’ve been following this story closely. A friend of mine, just 29, recently went through a month of intense treatment for chronic Lyme disease. It’s a really tough condition where the Lyme bacteria can cause ongoing neurological problems – things like persistent fatigue and memory difficulties. It’s so important to raise awareness about the long-term effects this can have, even with treatment.
Even though fans were worried, Bella shared a series of happy photos on Instagram from Monday’s event, letting them know she’s doing well.
In one photo, Bella looked stunning backstage, wearing a red three-piece lingerie set with stockings, a see-through robe, and matching high heels.
Despite recently posting about her health struggles online, a video of Bella looking energetic and cheerful backstage suggests she’s recovering well.
A new photo shows Bella reapplying her makeup while wearing the brand’s signature pink and white striped cotton lingerie.
She posed in a revealing outfit, wearing a red push-up bra, a red mini skirt, and knee-high socks.
Bella completed her look with white, sparkly lingerie featuring tassels, and she wore nude heels to enhance her already tall figure.
She seemed to be really enjoying reconnecting with friends behind the scenes, happily posing for photos with model Alex Consani.
After the glamorous show, Bella relaxed and grabbed a bite to eat with Alex, Emily Ratajkowski, and Paloma Elsesser.
After returning to work, the model responded to criticism about her recent runway appearance.
Following the performance, she responded to criticism about her elaborate wings in a now-deleted social media post, writing, ‘Let’s be real, those wings were heavy – but they looked amazing!’ according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Viewers noticed she appeared weak while on the runway, and seemed to have difficulty keeping her balance while modeling the large wings.
One fan noticed she seemed a bit tense and was visibly working to keep her wings in place. Despite this, they thought she was still performing exceptionally well.
The event happened while the model, who was featured on the cover of Vogue, was wearing a delicate, all-white and silver outfit. It included a close-fitting corset and a pleated skirt.
Bella has publicly shared her ten-year struggle with chronic Lyme disease. This illness has led to various neurological issues, such as headaches, difficulty concentrating, sensitivity to light and sound, inflammation, and numbness.
She’s been open and honest about her struggles with mental health, revealing she experiences both depression and anxiety.
As a lifestyle expert, I really connected with something I saw on World Mental Health Day. Someone shared a screenshot of a simple text message that started with ‘Hi. Sorry I haven’t texted you back,’ and it perfectly captured how anxiety can make even the smallest things, like replying to a friend, feel incredibly difficult. It was a powerful reminder that so much happens beneath the surface, and it’s okay to not always be okay.
Earlier this month, she openly shared on Instagram about how difficult her struggles with mental health have been, in a very personal post.
She explained that anxiety and depression can feel overwhelming, leaving people unable to function while also appearing fine to others.
You know, I’ve come to realize something really important over the years: being deeply sensitive isn’t a flaw, it’s just *who I am*. It’s about truly feeling things, being aware of what’s happening around me, and connecting with others on a deeper level. And honestly? I think that can be a huge strength – almost like a superpower, in a lot of ways.
Bella is lucky to have a lot of support from her loved ones, like her mother Yolanda, siblings Gigi and Anwar Hadid, and boyfriend Adan Banuelos, a 36-year-old rodeo rider from Mexico and the United States.
They started dating towards the end of 2023, soon after she moved to Texas. She saw the move as a fresh start for both her love life and herself.
In a 2024 interview with Allure, she explained that after a decade in modeling, she felt she was investing more into the work than she was getting back in return.
When I’m not feeling well, I prioritize self-care. And for the first time, I’m allowing myself to be genuine and not pretend to be okay.
She explained that when people look at her photos and comment on her happiness, it’s real. She feels like even her difficult days now are better than her best days in the past.
