Yolanda Foster Is Back In The Hospital As Her Body Is ‘Ravaged’ By Lyme Disease


Yolanda Foster was in the hospital earlier this week, where she shared a series of photos with fans, chronicling her ongoing battle with Lyme disease. For three years now, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has continued to fight the debilitating illness and posted updates with fans along the way.

As Radar Online reported on June 11, Yolanda Foster’s latest photos are “shocking” and show how her body has been “ravaged” by Lyme disease.

Along with one of her hospital photos, Yolanda Foster told fans, “Being Positive in a Negative situation isn’t naive, it’s leadership on a mission…… #DeterminedToFindACure #AffordableForAll #ChronicLymeDiseaseAwareness.”

With a second, Yolanda Foster said, “Until you are broken you don’t really know what you’re made of.”

Yolanda Foster was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2012 and suffered a tragic relapse at the end of last year. Following the relapse, Foster was left unable to read, write, and watch television, and her role with Bravo was deeply impacted. In addition to her being unable to participate in her weekly Bravo TV blogs, Foster was also unable to complete filming on the Season 5 reunion series, which was taped in February.

With Yolanda Foster has been a fan favorite on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for years, fans may have seen the last of the mother of three. As the Inquisitr previously reported, Yolanda Foster’s husband, David, whom she married in November 2011 following her failed marriage to Mohamed Hadid, isn’t a fan of the show and is reportedly hoping she will cut ties with Bravo ahead of Season 6. In early May, a source revealed the following in regard to Yolanda Foster’s Bravo future to Radar Online.

“David has told [Yolanda Foster] there is just no way she can return to the show because her condition is just getting worse. The Lyme disease is just ravaging her, and traveling for the international medical treatments is taking a toll. [Yolanda Foster] is extremely weak, and her memory is suffering. David is just being protective because he doesn’t want any of the ladies to use her illness against her, as he knows those women are vicious.”

Although her husband would prefer she quit the show and focus solely on her health, the source claimed Yolanda Foster was hoping to return.

“It will break [Yolanda Foster]’s heart if she can’t be on RHOBH because she wants to use the platform to raise awareness about the illness.”
