Popstar Selena Gomez, 24, previously opened up about her struggle with lupus to Ellen DeGeneres last year, as reported on ET.
She said she was undergoing chemotherapy, which forced her to take a break from making music. She also revealed that she found out she had the disease three years ago and kept it a secret until that day.
Earlier this summer, Gomez decided to cancel the remaining of her Revival Tour.
The singer said: "As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus, an illness that can affect people in different ways. I've discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges. I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off."
Meanwhile, things seem to have changed lately for the 22-year-old popstar as he continues to move on from Gomez through blossoming his relationship with Lionel Richie's 18-year old daughter, Sofia. They made headlines when he was reportedly spotted on a weekend getaway with Richie in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
According to A-list, "He hasn't reached out to her because he is doing his own thing and his own tour and he isn't spending his time worrying about her. He's really loving his relationship with Sofia [Richie], and as long as Sofia is in the picture it looks like it will remain that way."
Looks like the Biebs is getting more and more serious about his moving on from fellow popstar.
But this just made things harder for Gomez, reports said.
An insider said she reached her breaking point when she saw pictures of the two new lovebirds circulating in the Internet. While Bieber ignored her, it just reportedly made things worse for her. However, he and his family wished the "Kill 'Em With Kindness" singer that she gets the help she needs.
Moreover, Taylor Swift and Gomez are now leaning against each other for support as the fellow popstar is also facing a tough time with her personal life following a break-up with Tom Hiddleston.
