Bella Hadid admitted she wasn’t feeling well when she walked in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Fans had expressed concern about her health, especially because she was wearing very large, 50-pound wings on the runway.
Someone on TikTok asked if Bella Hadid seemed unwell at a recent event, and Hadid, 29, responded to the comment directly.
Last week, a TikTok user named worldoftali posted a video questioning Bella Hadid, asking what needs to happen to get her attention.
The TikToker wrote in the video’s caption that Bella Hadid ‘looked like she was about to cry the entire show,’ and asked who people thought they should confront about it.
Model Bella Hadid shared that she was still feeling unwell after a recent hospital stay and had also just started her period, revealing this in a comment online. She has previously spoken about her struggles with Lyme disease.
She explained that she was feeling unwell because she had started her period that morning and was still exhausted from a recent hospital visit. Despite not feeling her best, she put in effort and expressed her deep affection, reassuring the recipient that she was okay and apologizing if she had disappointed them. She finished by reiterating her love and sincerity.
This isn’t the first time Gigi Hadid has spoken about her look at the show. According to The Hollywood Reporter, she previously posted (and later deleted) a message saying, ‘Let’s be real, those wings were heavy – like 50 pounds! – but they looked amazing.’
Last week, people watching the fashion show wondered if the supermodel looked unwell while on the runway. She appeared to have trouble keeping her balance while wearing very large, 50-pound wings.
One fan noticed she seemed a bit tense and was clearly working to keep her wings in place. Despite that, they thought she was still doing a great job.
Even though she tried to look calm, a fan also said Hadid seemed like she was about to faint near the end of the runway walk.
The event happened while the model, who was featured on the cover of Vogue, wore a delicate, all-white and silver outfit. The ensemble included a snug corset and a flowing pleated skirt.
People on social media expressed worry in the comments, mentioning Hadid’s recent stay in the hospital.
One fan wrote: ‘Omg I thought it was just me — she looked like she was in pain.’
‘She was literally just hospitalized. I don’t know why they pushed her that much,’ another added.
Someone commented that the wings looked really big and heavy compared to the person eating them, who is quite small and also feeling unwell. Despite not feeling well, she still ate them anyway.
On Reddit, similar discussions unfolded as users debated the physical toll of the show.
‘She looked like she was either going to pass out or the wings were too heavy,’ one person wrote.
Someone else observed that she seemed really uneasy and needed to grip the wings to keep them steady.
One person remembered seeing a post on Instagram claiming the wings weighed 50 pounds. Others were upset with the show’s producers for giving such heavy props to a model who was still recovering from being sick.
People thought the accessories were much heavier this year, possibly because of the materials used to make them.
One person commented that if Bella was sick and unable to walk, the wings should have been given to someone else.
Gigi Hadid recently walked the runway shortly after finishing treatment in Germany for chronic Lyme disease. She received care at St. George Hospital, located near Munich.
Last month, the model posted very personal photos from her time in the hospital – images of her with IVs and oxygen – and apologized to her 61 million Instagram followers for being absent and not posting for a while.
According to a recent report in the Daily Mail, she often takes days or weeks to reply to text messages. However, it’s not that she ignores people completely – when she’s feeling better, she does respond. She doesn’t just disappear; she’ll usually send a quick message saying she’s unavailable to talk at that moment. Those close to her understand this pattern.
A source says Gigi Hadid tends to step away from public life when she’s going through a tough time and needs to recover.
They noted that Bella is doing well, but could still improve. She tends to withdraw when stressed, and seems to regain energy when she has time to herself.
Gigi Hadid has publicly shared her ten-year struggle with chronic Lyme disease. This condition causes a range of 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.
For World Mental Health Day, the celebrity on the cover of Vogue shared a screenshot of a touching message starting with ‘Hi. Sorry I haven’t texted you back,’ to illustrate the quiet battle many people face with anxiety.
She recently shared a personal and honest post on Instagram about how difficult her struggles with mental health have been.
She described how 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 sensitive isn’t a flaw, it’s just who I am. My ability to really feel things, to be aware of what’s going on around me, and to connect with others’ emotions? Honestly, it’s a strength. It’s not always easy, but in so many ways, it feels like a superpower.
According to a source, Hadid is surrounded by a supportive group of loved ones, including her mother Yolanda, siblings Gigi and Anwar, and boyfriend Adan Banuelos, a 36-year-old rodeo competitor from Mexico and the United States.
Hadid and her partner started dating towards the end of 2023, after Hadid 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 the modeling industry, she felt she was investing more into her career than she was receiving in return.
When I’m not feeling well, I prioritize self-care. And for the first time, I’m being genuine and not pretending to be okay.
She explained that when people see her looking happy in photos, she truly feels that way. She’s realized that even her difficult days now are better than what she used to consider good times.
