Celebrities often have Lyme disease because of several factors: they may spend more time in outdoor environments like wooded or grassy areas where Lyme- carrying ticks live; they often have greater access to quality healthcare that can diagnose the disease more accurately; and many live in or visit regions of the U.S. where Lyme disease is more prevalent. Additionally, their wealth and lifestyle may expose them to ticks through activities such as hiking or owning large properties in such habitats. Lyme disease is relatively common in the U.S., affecting hundreds of thousands annually, which is reflected in the number of celebrities publicly sharing their diagnoses. The disease can be challenging to diagnose early due to symptoms that overlap with other illnesses, but celebrities tend to get diagnosed due to comprehensive medical attention. Some well-known celebrities with Lyme disease include Justin Timberlake, Justin Bieber, Bella Hadid, and Shania Twain.
