It was years before her pregnancy that Halsey first revealed she had endometriosis, a painful disease that causes the tissues that normally line the uterus to grow outside the uterus. In a now-deleted Instagram post on Jan. 6, 2017, the talented artist told her fans that she “braved multiple terrifying surgeries” that day.

“The most important of which being the surgery that would hopefully treat my endometriosis. For those of you who have followed this battle of mine or who may suffer with it yourself, you know the extremes to which it can be mentally exhausting and physically painful,” she wrote in the post while also admitting she was in “total agony“ before concluding with a positive message. “If you suffer from chronic pain or a debilitating disease, please know that I have found time to live a crazy, wild, rewarding life AND balance my treatment, and I hope so much in my heart that you can too.”

We’re so glad Halsey was able to have a happy ending. Congratulations to her and Alev on their new bundle of joy!
