‘No one knows the real story’: Selena Gomez opens up about gaining weight due to lupus medication



Selena Gomez has spoken candidly about her experience of gaining weight due to her lupus medication.

In 2015, the “Lose You To Love Me” singer shared that she had been diagnosed with lupus, which is a long-term, incurable condition that impacts the immune system. In 2017, she underwent a life-saving kidney transplant for the condition.





Appearing on TikTok Live this week, Gomez explained that her medication for the condition meant that she “tends to hold a lot of water weight”.

“When I’m off of it, I tend to lose weight,” she explained. “I just wanted to say and encourage anyone out there who feels any sort of shame for exactly what they’re going through, and no one knows the real story.”

The Only Murders in the Building star continued: “I just want people to know that you’re beautiful, and you’re wonderful.Yeah we have days where may be we feel like s*** but I would rather be healthy and take care my self. my medication are important and I believe that they ' re what help me"

Gomez added that she was “not a model”, saying: “Never will be. And I think they’re awesome, mind you. I’m just definitely not that.

“I just wanted to tell you I love you guys, and thanks for supporting me and understanding. And if not, go away, because honestly I don’t believe in shaming people for [their appearance] or anything."
