Halsey, the acclaimed singer-songwriter known for hits like “Without Me” and “Bad at Love,” has recently opened up about her ongoing health struggles while also announcing the release of her upcoming fifth studio album. The artist, whose real name is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, shared a series of personal videos on Instagram, where she documented her medical treatments and expressed her hope for a healthier future.
In a heartfelt series of clips, Halsey revealed, “I feel like an old lady,” as she rubbed her legs in apparent discomfort. She shared her determination to overcome her health issues by the age of 30, aiming for a “rebirth” where she can fully enjoy her life and career without the burden of illness. “I’m not gonna be sick, and I’m gonna look super hot and have lots of energy and just get to redo my 20s in my 30s,” she stated.
Halsey’s health battles are not new to her fans. In May 2022, she disclosed that she had been diagnosed with several conditions, including Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Sjogren’s syndrome, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Additionally, she has been vocal about her struggles with endometriosis, a chronic condition affecting the reproductive system.
Despite these challenges, Halsey has channeled her experiences into her music. She announced her new single, “The End,” an acoustic ballad, and shared that proceeds from this release will be donated to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the Lupus Research Alliance, showing her commitment to supporting others facing similar health issues.

This new album follows her 2021 release, “If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power,” which was produced by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross of Nine Inch Nails.
Fans eagerly anticipate this new body of work, expecting it to delve into Halsey’s recent life experiences, including her health journey and personal growth. The singer’s openness and resilience continue to inspire many, and her latest musical endeavor promises to be a poignant reflection of her strength and creativity.
