Selma Blair, 54, Sizzles in a Bikini During Beach Vacation, Looking Happy & Healthy After Years of Health Struggles

Selma Blair was spotted looking happy as she enjoyed her time on the beach in Los Cabos, Mexico. She wore a black string bikini top and olive-colored bikini bottoms, and a sheer white polka-dot top as she waded through the waves.

In photos Page Six obtained and published on Wednesday, August 19, Blair has short blonde hair and looks healthy. She smiles in one photo, and in another her eyes are closed as she swims in the sea.

Seeing her in such good health and appearing so joyous is an incredible thing because the “Cruel Intentions” actress has been vocal about her health struggles after her diagnosis with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2018. She is currently in remission. 


Selma Blair Discusses MS Diagnosis

Blair publicly revealed she had MS in an Instagram post in October 2018. She posted a mirror selfie and shared her thoughts in the caption. She revealed how she had been trying on outfits for her new Netflix show, and how the “brilliant” costume designer was helping her steady herself and get dressed. “I have #multiplesclerosis,” she wrote. “I am in an exacerbation. By the grace of the lord, and will power and the understanding producers at Netflix , I have a job. A wonderful job. I am disabled  I fall sometimes. I drop things. My memory is foggy. And my left side is asking for directions from a broken gps. But we are doing it. And I laugh and I don’t know exactly what I will do precisely but I will do my best.”

She also took the time to thank her many great friends and the people who she was working alongside for their compassion. She continued, “I am in the thick of it, but I hope to give some hope to others. And even to myself. You can’t get help unless you ask. It can be overwhelming in the beginning. You want to sleep. You always want to sleep. So I don’t have answers. You see, I want to sleep. But I am a forthcoming person, and I want my life to be full somehow.”

Despite her health struggles, Blair remained hopeful. “I want to play with my son again; I want to walk down the street and ride my horse. I have MS, and I am ok.”

In an interview with People in April 2025, Blair spoke about her health and how she was “truly relapse-free.” She continued, “I am doing amazingly well. I’ve been feeling great for about a year. But I am finally well enough to really, genuinely … I always try and feel my best, but now that I actually have stamina and energy and getting out and going out isn’t so scary.”
