Halsey has courageously shared her private battle with illness, revealing her journey through a series of Instagram videos that document her receiving medical infusions. In her initial post, she expressed gratitude for being alive and hinted at the therapeutic role music has played in her recovery, stating, "I wrote an album." Initially, the exact nature of her illness wasn't disclosed, but Halsey later revealed that she was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in 2022 and subsequently with a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. Thankfully, she shared that both conditions are now in remission, though they remain lifelong challenges.
Reflecting on her experience, Halsey conveyed a sense of resilience and hope. In one video, she poignantly remarked, "I told myself I'm giving myself two more years to be sick. At 30, I'm having a rebirth and I'm not gonna be sick." This determination shines through as she looks forward to a healthier future, expressing excitement about returning to the stage and reconnecting with her fans. Her latest single, "The End," an acoustic guitar ballad, was released in conjunction with her announcement, signifying a new chapter in her life and career. Additionally, Halsey is making charitable donations to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the Lupus Research Alliance, underscoring her commitment to supporting others facing similar health battles.
Halsey's forthcoming album, which follows 2021's critically acclaimed "If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power," produced by Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, promises to be deeply personal. She has launched a cryptic promotional website, ForMyLastTrick.com, featuring intriguing images and a heartfelt note explaining the significance of this new project. Halsey hints at revealing much about her journey, emphasizing the importance of understanding her story before diving into the new music. Fans eagerly await this next chapter, ready to embrace the vulnerability and strength that Halsey continues to share through her art.
