Kelly Price took to social media to update her followers on her health and her struggle with Covid-19, which was followed by the R&B singer having to refute rumors that she went ‘missing’ after being discharged from the hospital.

Although the outcry increased when the news leaked owing to family members claiming they hadn’t seen her since she was released from the hospital in July after battling COVID-19, Price eventually addressed the issue via a TMZ interview towards the end of the weekend.

Many speculated the incident was a hoax, which Kelly vehemently refuted in a recent health update on Instagram.

In the 13-minute video above, she also discusses her recovery and her goal to educate the world about long-COVID.

Price updated her health on Instagram on Sunday (October 17). While she was happy to be rid of COVID-19, she warned her fans that she had suffered double pneumonia as a result of the illness, leaving her lungs ‘damaged and severely diminished’ and that she still has respiratory therapy and sees a cardiologist.

She also addressed those who believed the entire “missing episode” was a hoax for attention saying, “anyone who has ever been near-death understands. No one would do this for attention.”
