Avril Lavigne Suffering from Mysterious Health Issue; Asks for Prayers
Avril Lavigne told a fan via Twitter that she hasn't been feeling very well and that she needs the fans prayers.
Lavigne has been missing from the public eye since September. Her absence got fans worried about her and several of them left her messages on Twitter. On Tuesday, Lavigne replied to one of the messages from her fans saying:
"I feel bad because I haven't been able to say anything to the fans to let them no [sic] why I've been absent. I'm torn as I'm quite private.... I'm not feeling well. I'm having some health issues. So please keep me in your prayers."
A fan account of Avril Lavigne also sent out a tweet with hashtags "#GetWellSoonAvril" and "#PrayForAvril" to which she replied with a "Thank You."
Some fans thought it's probably a complicated pregnancy that's been keeping Lavigne out of the limelight but a Billboard reporter contacted reps of the Punk Rocker who confirmed that while the issue was not pregnancy-related, it was "concerning."
The rumor mill has also been churning out divorce stories of Lavigne and her rocker husband Nickelback's Chad Kroeger.
The couple tied the knot after dating for a year in July 2013. But rumors of trouble in paradise started doing the rounds even when they were newlyweds. However, Kroeger rubbished away the rumors and joked that the media should start circulating a pregnancy story instead of a split one.
"When you get out of high school, and it's like ugh, okay. All that rumor crap. All that stuff that people say behind each other's backs is minuscule, pales in comparison to the world of celebrity or being married to a celebrity. That's high school multiplied exponentially. It's ridiculous. How many times has Jennifer Aniston been pregnant this year? A dozen? Let's start a new rumor. I'm pregnant," Kroeger told ET Canada in a previous interview.
