Bringing Up Bates’ Erin Bates Suffers “Severe Seizure” After 7th Baby

Erin Bates Paine‘s health battle continues.

During her stay at the hospital due to postpartum complications following the birth of her son, the star of Bringing Up Bates experienced a prolonged and intense seizure on September 3, as confirmed by her husband Chad Paine.

As I shared on Instagram on September 4th, it seems like Erin’s recovery was progressing well until we hit another roadblock. We find ourselves in a challenging situation, filled with sorrow, doubt, and tears. Currently, she’s under the close watch of medical professionals in the ICU. They are conducting various tests and scans to pinpoint the issue at hand. The truth is, Erin is incredibly weak and has spent hours drifting in and out of consciousness.

Chad went on saying, “Being her husband is one of the most challenging experiences I’ve ever encountered – to stand by her side as she battles, feeling utterly powerless to alleviate her distress. My love for her transcends any words I could utter, and I can hardly fathom life without my dearest companion.

The father of seven, who has children Carson (10), Brooklyn (8), Everly (7), Holland (5), Finley (3), William (22 months), and Henry (1 week) together with Erin, expressed that the days have been filled with a multitude of emotions as he tirelessly tends to his wife.

Speaking as a devoted admirer, I echo the longing hearts, including my own, eagerly yearning for this particular sight. There’s a silent hope we cling to – a belief that recovery, though shrouded in mystery, will eventually arrive.

Erin was quickly transferred to the Intensive Care Unit following the emotionally taxing, prolonged labor that Chad had earlier referred to, which resulted in the birth of their youngest son, Henry.

During her latest delivery, Erin experienced a longer and more strenuous labor compared to her previous ones, as she detailed in a September 1 Instagram post. It was discovered that she had contracted a serious urinary tract infection and kidney infection, leading her into a state of septic shock.

Even though she’s in a critical state, Chad remarked that his wife of 11 years has been a beacon of kindness and a shining example of grace for the nurses, staff, and doctors who have cared for her.

He expressed that everyone is touched by her compassion and thankfulness, even amid hardship. He humbly requests your prayers for this radiant girl who shines brightness in a gloomy world.

During a July 2025 wrestling match, the former contestant of Total Bellas disclosed that a displacement occurred in one of her breast implants following an aggressive elbow strike delivered by fellow WWE star Piper Niven.

At the time, she reassured her sister Bella Garcia, ‘Everything is alright.’ She added, ‘We’ll sort it out eventually. I told the doctor, “Now that I’m newly divorced, as soon as my boots are put away, I’ll be back to you and we’ll make sure these girls look great, because these girls deserve attention in the future and they can’t look shabby.’

In 2014, the actress who played a prominent role in “12 Years a Slave” received a diagnosis of uterine fibroids, which are non-cancerous growths that can form within or near the uterus. Remarkably, she won an Oscar for her performance in the film that very same year.

In 2025, she bravely revealed her long-hidden struggle, penning an emotional post on Instagram where she confessed to having endured a silent battle for over a decade. As a fervent admirer, I couldn’t help but feel a profound respect and empathy for the strength and resilience she displayed in sharing her journey with us.

In simpler terms, she stated that when girls go through puberty, they are often made to believe that having periods equals experiencing pain, and this pain is just an inevitable aspect of being female. She emphasized that many women endure these monthly discomforts individually, as if it’s a personal struggle.

 

In July 2025, the member of Daisy Jones & The Six band revealed that she was admitted to the hospital due to a hernia, which is typically found in the stomach or lower body region, resulting from consistently wearing restrictive trousers.

She posted on X, the platform previously known as Twitter, saying, ‘You don’t tweet as often anymore.’ She added, ‘Remember when I wore such tight pants six months ago that I suffered a hernia? Since then, I’ve been hesitant to tell you about it.’

As a seasoned lifestyle advocate, I find myself reflecting on my personal health journey this month. Back in April of ’25, I underwent a life-changing operation following an unexpected complication with my appendix – it had almost ruptured. A reminder for all to prioritize regular check-ups and self-care.

A week ago, Brian shared in an Instagram video that he’d been experiencing abdominal discomfort. This led him to visit the emergency room, where they found his appendix was about to rupture, though it hadn’t quite done so yet.

He added, “I’m on the road to recovery. It’s not an easy process. This is my first major surgery.”

Adam Devine mentioned that the injuries he received at age 11, following an accident with a cement truck, continue to impact him up until now.

Devine stated in an episode of the In Depth With Graham Bensinger podcast in 2025, ‘It’s been a living hell.’ He explained that he has continuous muscle spasms throughout his body. He was informed by doctors earlier this year that he was close to death.

He mentioned that pain is intermittent, also expressing that his body contains several minor issues and inconsistencies.

A former star from Bachelor Nation revealed that, because of intense back pain worsened during a camping trip with a buddy, he had to crawl on the floor to reach the hospital for treatment.

Currently, there’s a strange tingling sensation from my knees down to my toes, he mentioned during a March 2025 episode of his podcast, Trading Secrets. To clarify, he was previously able to squat around 295 pounds, but now finds himself unable to perform even a single-leg squat without losing balance – a situation that feels like he’s experienced some sort of neurological incident.

But with the help of a back specialist and some steroids, he added, “We’re on the mend.”

Gina Kirschenheiter from “Real Housewives of Orange County” announced that her former spouse, Matt Kirschenheiter, experienced a heart attack in March 2025. Fortunately, he managed to pull through this challenging incident.

30 Rock’s prominent actor experienced a health emergency during a New York Knicks match in March 2025, resulting in his removal from Madison Square Garden in a stretcher.

On the next day, the comedian posted an update on social media, explaining it was a bout of food poisoning and he was recovering.

In a statement made in February 2025, the actress from Even Stevens revealed that she was accidentally shot in the face during a trip for hubby Brendan Rooney’s birthday celebration while they were clay pigeon shooting.

In her Instagram post, she stated that there was another person with us who carelessly discharged their weapon in a dangerous manner, causing them to accidentally shoot me in the face. Immediately after the incident, @thebrendanrooney swiftly responded, evaluated my injuries, and hastened me to the hospital. I sustained injuries at five different locations, one of which was only a fraction of an inch away from striking me directly in my right eye.

The former star of “Kim Possible” added that a piece became stuck near his eye, making it unsafe to perform surgery on it for now. However, doctors are keeping close tabs on him as he currently sees clearly.

The actress expressed her heartfelt gratitude for still being alive, saying, “I hold such deep affection for my daughters, husband, family, and friends that it’s almost uncontainable. A moment ago, I caught a glimpse of my life passing before me, and let me tell you this: cherish the people close to you whenever you can. Life has a way of turning on a dime.

Despite the internet sometimes being unkind, Amy Schumer is grateful it provided answers for her during this specific instance. In a 2025 episode of Call Her Daddy, she reminisced about facing criticism following a series of interviews, saying “Everybody, relax,” but then medical professionals started commenting, suggesting that something was amiss with her appearance, as her face appeared unusual to them. Amy jokingly commented, “I’m getting trolled by doctors?”

After these doctors hypothesized she might have Cushing syndrome due to increased cortisol levels or steroid injections, the creator of Life & Beth paused and realized that she had indeed been receiving steroid injections for her scars. She explained, “I’d had a breast reduction, a C-section, whatever, so I was getting these steroid injections. This led to my developing Cushing syndrome, which I wouldn’t have known if the internet hadn’t relentlessly criticized me.”

Now, Amy is relieved that she is healthy. In her 2024 News Not Noise newsletter, she shared, “Discovering that I had a type of Cushing syndrome that would naturally heal itself and that I am in good health was the most wonderful news possible.

During a game in December 2024, an AHL player was unfortunately injured when another player’s skate sliced him open. He required 25 stitches to close the wound.

I wouldn’t wish that experience on any parent.

In March 2022, Hailey Bieber experienced a harrowing incident during breakfast with her husband Justin Bieber, when sudden stroke-like symptoms occurred. Hailey later recounted the event on YouTube, stating that Justin had asked if she was alright and, unable to respond, she began experiencing difficulties speaking and her facial features drooped on one side. Despite the temporary resolution of these symptoms, Hailey sought medical attention.

Upon examination, it was discovered that she had suffered a small blood clot in her brain, referred to as a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA). Further investigation at the University of California, Los Angeles revealed a hole in her heart known as a patent foramen ovale (PFO), through which the blood clot had traveled, escaped, and reached her brain.

Hailey underwent a successful PFO closure procedure and reported feeling well afterwards.

In the same year, Hailey went through a health crisis, Justin also faced a similar ordeal. Specifically, in 2022, Justin revealed that he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which led to temporary paralysis in parts of his face and the cancellation of his Justice World Tour. Explaining the condition on Instagram, he mentioned that it stemmed from a virus attacking the nerve in his ear and facial nerves, causing full paralysis on one side of his face. He noted difficulties in eating due to the condition but eventually recovered. Hailey confirmed on Good Morning America that Justin was making progress and feeling better after a terrifying and unexpected situation, assuring everyone that he would be completely fine.

Jamie Foxx initially chose to keep quiet about his April 2023 hospitalization, but eventually shared details of the ordeal in his 2024 Netflix special titled “What Had Happened Was….” In Atlanta, he experienced an intense headache and asked a friend for an aspirin. Unfortunately, before he could get it, he collapsed and lost consciousness for 20 days.

Upon being taken to a doctor, Foxx was given a cortisone shot and sent home, but his sister Deidra Dixon soon drove him to the hospital where they discovered he had suffered a brain bleed leading to a stroke. After undergoing surgery on the 4th of May, he woke up in a wheelchair unable to walk. He then travelled to Chicago for rehabilitation and therapy.

“All I can say is that I am grateful for every prayer,” he said, “because I needed every one of them.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’d rephrase that sentence as follows: During the initial contest on NBC’s competition series, I found myself pushing my limits while running a mile – and for a moment, it felt like I had reached the finish line much too soon!

This paraphrase aims to maintain the original meaning while presenting it in a more engaging and relatable first-person narrative style, suitable for a lifestyle expert.

She clarified during ‘Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser’. She didn’t recall much, but she distinctly remembered hearing a helicopter, feeling detached, her grandfather appearing, and then experiencing darkness. However, she also saw light, which led her to believe that she had passed away that day.

She went on explaining, ‘My body was essentially failing, as if each organ was shutting off.’ Unaware at the time, she had developed a condition called rhabdomyolysis. Essentially, this means her body was signaling a potential collapse.

Emilia Clarke performed intense fight scenes for the show “Game of Thrones,” but in 2019, she published an essay in “The New Yorker” titled “My Life’s Battle.” During a workout at the gym, she suddenly fell ill, describing her experience as being violently sick and experiencing severe, sharp, and constricting pain. At some level, she realized her brain was injured.

She was rushed to the hospital for a scan, which confirmed a dangerous type of stroke called a subarachnoid hemorrhage, caused by bleeding in the space around her brain. She had suffered an aneurysm, or arterial rupture. The pain during surgery to seal the aneurysm was unbearable, and while recovering, she experienced difficulty speaking, or aphasia.

A week later, she regained her speech, and left the hospital after a month’s stay. However, a follow-up scan in 2013 revealed that the growth had doubled in size, necessitating another surgery. “When they woke me up,” she wrote, “I was screaming from pain. The second operation failed, and the doctors informed me that my chances of survival were slim if they didn’t operate again. This time they needed to access my brain through the traditional method-by removing part of my skull.”

Fortunately, Emilia is now reportedly in full health.

Snoop Dogg’s daughter, Cori Broadus, expresses her gratitude towards her family after they stood by her during a critical period. In January 2024, Cori suffered a severe stroke and immediately, her loved ones rushed to be with her. She reached out to Will Marfuggi from TopMob News in December 2024, sharing that she had texted them about the stroke and sent them a picture. Everyone quickly came to her aid.

However, due to other health issues such as lupus and failing kidneys, Cori’s hospital stay was longer than anticipated. “I could have left the hospital after my stroke,” she said, “but my lupus wasn’t doing well. My kidneys were failing, there was a lot going on.”

Today, Cori is recovering well. She reported that while she had to focus on rebuilding some motor skills, overall she is in good health.

In her twenties, Shailene Woodley faced numerous health issues. The actress mentioned during an episode of the SHE MD Podcast in September 2024 that she experienced a range of problems including hearing loss, fatigue, and stomach discomfort. To find solutions, she turned to both traditional medical doctors and alternative healers with a holistic background. This decade-long journey led her to grapple with not only physical discomfort but also mental struggles such as fear of food, body dysmorphia, identity confusion, and safety concerns related to her own body. Now, having addressed both aspects of her health, Shailene is feeling much improved and shares that she’s healthy once again.
