Fans will know well that Michelle Young appeared on “The Bachelor” before taking on the lead role on “The Bachelorette.” She then found love with Jack Leius and the pair got married back in June. Although the couple recently went on their honeymoon in Italy, it turns out they had to cut it short due to the fact that Michelle has been dealing with health issues.
“So many [of you] have asked about honeymoon photos,” Michelle wrote in an Instagram Story (via Us Weekly) on Saturday, November 1. “Jack and I loved the time we got to spend in Venice and Positano. Sadly, we had to end our trip seven days early because my health couldn’t keep up.”
She explained, “For the last eight months to a year, I’ve been battling with extreme fatigue, brain fog, panic attacks, heart palpitations, hypoglycemia and POTs-like symptoms.”
Michelle Thought It Was Just Wedding Stress Getting to Her
In Michelle’s Instagram Story, she noted, “After a number of tests came back normal, we thought it could be stress and anxiety with the wedding.”
However, months after the big day, she was still experiencing issues with her health.
“Doctors haven’t been able to find anything until recently, getting the results of a Mycotoxin and Mold test showing I’ve been SEVERELY exposed,” she wrote. “My body has been working hard to fight it all off.”
She continued, “Thankfully, we did just move and know our new home is safe. But, clearly [I] was exposed to something (many things) in the past few years. Now, [I am] having to do an intense detox, along with many medications and IV therapy to help my body get rid of everything.”
Michelle Still Promised Honeymoon Photos
Michelle is aware of the fact that her friends, fans and followers would love to see photos of her honeymoon even though it was cut short. Fortunately, she’s promised to come through for them.
“I will share the few pics we have soon but didn’t get to capture as many memories as I would have liked since my health wasn’t holding up,” she wrote in her Instagram Story. “I also dislike posting things like, ‘Everything was/has been perfect’ since it sure hasn’t but also never want to add any negativity on the internet.”
She added, “Anyways, hoping to get good health back soon and head back to Italy in the spring to ‘redo’ some of our honeymoon.”
