“Real Housewives of D.C.” star Michaele Salahi has revealed in a new book that she suffers from multiple sclerosis.
Salahi was diagnosed with the disease seven years ago, and appeared on FOX News this morning to discuss her struggle.
“This is the first time I’ve said it publicly … It’s something I kept personal, “Salahi said. “I think a lot of people do with chronic illnesses or any type of disease, whether it’s heart [disease] or whatever you deal with, you know, breast cancer, so for me, I kept it personal because I never wanted to be judged, never wanted to have pity, and I certainly wanted to hold on to my job.”
The new book, titled ‘Cirque du Salahi,’ was written by Diane Dimond.
