As the New York Times’ Tina Jordan revealed on Twitter, alongside glamorous shots of her model daughters and luxurious lifestyle, Yolanda Hadid also included photos of parasites in her memoir. The bugs were extracted from the former model’s body, and shockingly, in a follow-up tweet, Jordan revealed, “I didn’t show the really revolting pics.”
According to ET, during the first few pages of the book, Hadid claims to have previously endured the Epstein-Barr virus and hepatitis. While receiving a colonic as a treatment for Lyme disease, the former model discovered her body had been invaded by parasites, particularly her intestines. A massive worm, measuring around 16 inches, was removed at one stage. This isn’t the first time Hadid has been open about her issues with parasites either.
As Us Weekly notes, during an episode of “RHOBH,” the Dutch beauty revealed to friends Eileen Davidson and Lisa Rinna that she had a two-foot-long parasite living inside her body, which had thankfully also been removed by doctors. “I had a really extreme parasite infection. It was hell,” Yolanda said. “It was awful.” Sadly, hinting at what was to come, her then-husband David Foster seemed unimpressed at having to accompany Hadid for yet another medical appointment.
