2022 was a scary year for both Justin and Hailey, as the two both experienced health scares. On March 10, 2022, Hailey revealed on Instagram that she had a mini stroke. "On Thursday morning, I was sitting at breakfast with my husband when I started having stroke-like symptoms and was taken to the hospital," she wrote in a statement on her Instagram Story (via People). "They found I had suffered a very small blood clot to my brain, which caused a small lack of oxygen, but my body had passed it on its own and I recovered completely within a few hours."
In a Youtube video titled, "Telling My Story," Hailey explained the ordeal in more detail, and revealed that she was diagnosed with PFO, a small opening in the heart that typically closes after birth. Doctors attributed the cause of the medical event to be from birth control, COVID-19, and a long flight that she had recently taken.
Months after Hailey's scare, Justin experienced his own health problem. In June 2022, the singer shared on Instagram that he had been diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which, according to People, "is a rare neurological disorder brought on by a reactivation of the same virus that causes chicken pox and shingles." A common symptom of the syndrome is facial paralysis, which Justin experienced on the right side of his face.
Shortly after Justin opened up about his condition, Hailey shared an update in an interview with "Good Morning America" that same month, saying, "He is getting better every single day. He's feeling a lot better and, obviously, it was just a very scary and random situation to happen, but he's going to be totally okay, and I'm just grateful that he's fine."
