Teary-eyed Nadiya Hussain, 39, revealed she’s been diagnosed with two autoimmune diseases in an emotional Instagram video on Monday The Great British Bake Off star, who won the series in 2015, shared her shock health diagnosis after two years of being in and out of hospital’I don’t take time out for myself. I don’t really know what that means or what that feels like. Not really. And when I do take time for myself, I feel incredibly guilty.’She added: ‘But recently, mostly this year, but over the course of two years, I’ve been quite unwell. I’ve just been getting quite sick.’And over the course of the two years, I’ve been diagnosed with two autoimmune diseases, which I’m not going to go into now.’I will go into in the future when I know more about it and when I have a better handle on it and when I understand it a little bit better.’But till then, like I cannot express, like I cannot express the importance of listening to your body, of taking care of yourself.’And like I said, I’m the worst at that. I’m not very good at it at all. I will only ever take care of myself when my body’s in shutdown. And that’s not good for you. We need to take more care of ourselves’.She continued: ‘So, yeah, I just wanted to come on here. And like it’s been a really kind of really tough year because of all the tests and trying to work stuff out and getting my head around things.’But I feel like it’s really important to come out the other side and like really be grateful for and feel blessed that although, you know, it’d be great not to be sick, I’m here.’And that’s really what matters is that I’m here and I need to do all the things that I can to positively impact myself mentally and physically. And that’s all I can really do.
