Bella Hadid is showing love to her fans and addressing their concerns following her recent appearance at the 2025 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
After the 15th October event, the 29-year-old supermodel took to social media to explain why she seemed to have lower energy on the runway. Her response came after a fan’s viral TikTok questioned her performance. Bella Hadid clarified that she had started her period that morning and was still recovering her stamina following a recent hospitalisation, adding that she gave her best despite the circumstances.
The Orebella founder also expressed remorse to anyone who may have been disappointed, assuring fans that she’s doing fine and working on regaining her strength.

Why Was Bella Hadid Hospitalised?
Hadid was hospitalised in September due to complications related to her chronic Lyme disease, which she was first diagnosed with at 16. Her mother, Yolanda Hadid, shared a heartfelt message on Instagram describing the difficulty of watching her daughter navigate the invisible pain of the illness. Photos showed Bella undergoing treatment and resting during her recovery period.
Just weeks later, Bella Hadid made her first public appearance in Paris in September, celebrating her return to health by sharing that she had finally returned to the gym after a long break. Yolanda reposted her daughter's progress with pride, reminding followers that recovery takes patience and consistency.
