According to the NHS, Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease where the immune system is dysfunctional and mistakenly identifies the body’s own tissues as foreign invaders. In people with lupus, the immune system creates autoantibodies to attack the body’s tissues. These form immune complexes which cause inflammation and damage – possibly affecting the organs and/or the joints in some lupus patients.
Multiple other celebrities have been diagnosed with the illness such as Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez, Seal, Nick Cannon and Katherine Ryan.
In a candid video on Instagram, the star said: "So to update you guys quickly, I had a call yesterday with one of the rheumatology guys and they got more of my blood test results back and the diagnosis is that I've got drug induced lupus.
Louise is best known for being on MIC"So I'm suffering from that which is fabulous. It means that I'm really tired but I've also started to get really intolerable joint pain especially if I sit down for any amount of time if I cross my legs."
The mum-of-one has suffered with several physical and mental health issues since the traumatic birth of her "little miracle baby", Leo-Hunter Libbey in November 2021.
Louise and fiancé Ryan Libbey didn't reveal that she had given birth for five weeks as she very almost didn't make it home for Christmas after "various serious complications" left her confined to a wheelchair and recovering in hospital for a month post-birth.
