Hailey Baldwin Bieber Has an Ovarian Cyst the 'Size of an Apple'

Hailey Baldwin Bieber is dealing with another health setback.

The Rhode skincare founder, 26, revealed on Instagram Monday that she has a large ovarian cyst.

"I have a cyst on my ovary the size of an apple," the model wrote in her Instagram Stories, sharing a photo of herself with her shirt pulled up that revealed her stomach. "I don't have endometriosis or PCOS [polycystic ovary syndrome] but I have gotten an ovarian cyst a few times and it's never fun."

Hailey, who has been celebrating her recent birthday in Japan with husband Justin Bieber, wrote alongside her stomach that it was "not a baby," once again denying persistent pregnancy rumors that have followed her since she and Justin tied the knot in 2018.

While she didn't provide any further information about her cyst, she did say it makes her achy and "feel nauseous and bloated and crampy and emotional."

"Anyways…I'm sure a lot of you can overly relate and understand," she wrote. "We got this."

RELATED: Hailey Bieber Says Her and Justin Bieber's Health Battles Made Them 'Closer Than Ever'

Hailey has been open about her health issues in the past.

Earlier this year, she was hospitalized after suffering a mini-stroke called transient ischemic attack (or TIA).

"I had a small blood clot that traveled through a hole in my heart that I was born with that never closed, and went to my brain," she said on Live with Kelly and Ryan. "I never knew I had the hole in my heart, so it's actually a blessing in disguise because then I discovered that and I had a procedure done to close it. So now I have a device in my heart forever."

Justin, 28, has been battling his own health issues, sharing the news that he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome in June.

Their two battles have only strengthened their marriage, Hailey told Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest. "We both are dealing with older illnesses for sure," Hailey said. "Honestly, the silver lining in the whole situation — what he went through, what I went through — is it really bonds you. I feel like we're closer than ever. It really brings us close. So I'll take that away from it."

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation postponed votes on two competing plans that would have given the agency more power to scrutinize asset managers after it was clear neither had the majority backing of the five-member board. "If these fund complexes are using their purportedly passive investment funds to push social policy, to influence bank policy, there's a real significant issue here," said FDIC board member Jonathan McKernan at the agency's public board meeting on Thursday.

  • Exclusive-ByteDance prefers TikTok shutdown in US if legal options fail, sources say

    TikTok owner ByteDance would prefer shutting down its loss-making app rather than sell it if the Chinese company exhausts all legal options to fight legislation to ban the platform from app stores in the U.S., four sources said. The algorithms TikTok relies on for its operations are deemed core to ByteDance overall operations, which would make a sale of the app with algorithms highly unlikely, said the sources close to the parent. TikTok accounts for a small share of ByteDance's total revenues and daily active users, so the parent would rather have the app shut down in the U.S. in a worst case scenario than sell it to a potential American buyer, they said.
