What We Know About Susan Boyle's Health Issues

Susan Boyle’s continuous health struggles followed not long after she appeared on “Britain’s Got Talent.” In 2012, the talented singer was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, per Style Craze. According to the Mayo Clinic, Type 2 diabetes “is a condition that happens because of a problem in the way the body regulates and uses sugar as a fuel.” One of the symptoms that can come with type 2 diabetes is unintended weight loss, which Boyle faced.

According to PinkVilla, the singer admitted in 2016 that she lost 28 pounds after being diagnosed with the health condition. Boyle knew she had to take some serious measures to get her health back on track, and that included losing weight and eating better. In 2018, it was said that the singer lost a total of 50 pounds since her diagnosis. Boyle has been continuing to make sure her health is as good as it can be throughout the years.

In 2021, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Boyle revealed that she had taken the lockdown seriously as she was at high risk with her diabetes, per Express. She shared, “I have diabetes so I have tried to stay indoors as much as possible. Catching COVID would not have been a good outcome.” Boyle revealed that she was warned not to take risks and go outside as it can have a great effect on her health. So, the musician hunkered down to ensure her health was in tip-top shape.
