A lot is going on with Justin Bieber. The 25-year-old Canadian popstar may want to start a family soon. The ‘Yummy’ singer recently uploaded a string of photos on Instagram. All of these photos were captioned with the hashtag “Yummy” -- based on his new song.

One of the photos, however, was captioned “Baby Fever”. Many on the internet interpreted this as a cryptic hint towards his wife Hailey Baldwin being pregnant, even as the 23-year-old model shut down these rumors on her Instagram story where she wrote: “The internet is funny! No, I'm not pregnant I just really love food.”

But that’s not all that’s going down with Justin. According to TMZ, in the upcoming documentary called ‘Seasons’ on the singer’s life, Justin will open up about his mental health and battling Lyme disease, an ailment contracted through a tick bite, whose symptoms include rashes, headaches, fever, and fatigue. 



 

Per TMZ, sources who have seen the documentary that drops January 27 said Justin and others in the film, discuss the “scary symptoms” he endured in 2019. According to the sources, Justin says in the documentary that during much of the year his condition went undiagnosed and that doctors struggled to figure out what was wrong with him, but couldn't put their finger on it until late last year.

The documentary will also feature Justin talking about his mental health and his brush with chronic infectious mononucleosis, a disease that occurs in those with immunologic abnormalities.

Post TMZ’s report, Justin took to Instagram on Wednesday and wrote: “While a lot of people kept saying Justin Bieber looks like shit, on meth, etc. they failed to realize I've been recently diagnosed with Lyme disease, not only that but had a serious case of chronic mono which affected my skin, brain function, energy, and overall health. These things will be explained further in a docu-series I'm putting on YouTube shortly. You can learn all that I've been battling and OVERCOMING!! It's been a rough couple years but getting the right treatment that will help treat this so far incurable disease and I will be back and better than ever NO CAP.”
