Jo Frost is minding more than just manners these days.
Due to being diagnosed with a severe bodily reaction called anaphylaxis that is triggered by allergens, the former Supernanny must exercise extreme caution in her environment. As she stated herself, “It’s extremely life-threatening and potentially hazardous for me if there are nuts present.
In a private conversation with Francesca Amiker from TopMob News, Jo shared her experience of unexpectedly experiencing a severe allergic reaction leading to hospitalization. She emphasized the importance of being vigilant and meticulous in maintaining personal safety due to potential allergens.
As a nut-obsessed enthusiast, I meticulously scrutinize every nook and cranny of food packaging and restaurant menus like a detective on a mission. I’m not afraid to voice my needs even when serving nuts is the norm in certain places, sometimes ruffling feathers along the way.
The British celebrity expressed shock and dismay over the inconsiderate actions they’ve observed in America, particularly noting a lack of compassion.”
“During flights, I’ve been startled awake by fellow passengers who seemed to forget their manners, yelling things like ‘How rude of you, can’t even enjoy my peanuts!’
And for Jo, she’s had enough of the lack of understanding about anaphylaxis.
She stated, “Many of us are affected in one way or another. If it isn’t you dealing with this condition, it might be a relative or acquaintance who is close to someone with these allergies.
So, since he himself is dealing with a food allergy, this 55-year-old individual has teamed up with FARE (Food Allergy Research & Education) in order to spread knowledge and understanding about this health issue.
Jo put it this way: “Empathy for me means having a deeper comprehension of someone’s daily struggles when they’re battling a life-threatening illness. If we genuinely care about the wellbeing and security of our kids, then we need to pay attention to this too. I hope this realization helps us become more enlightened and informed, enabling us to alter policies and laws for the better.
Apart from delivering a keynote speech at Patrick Mahomes’ gala in October, she is also scheduled to attend the OctoberFARE Summit in Washington, D.C., advocating for policies that safeguard children afflicted by anaphylaxis.
Jo stated, “We’re not seeking preferential care, but we aim for equal participation instead.” She also mentioned, “No one should feel the need to apologize for their medical situation, as it does not dictate my identity.

During a July 2025 wrestling match, the former contestant of Total Bellas disclosed that one of her breast implants moved out of place following a forceful elbow strike from fellow WWE star Piper Niven.
She assured her sister Bella Garcia at the time, “Everything’s alright.” She continued, “We’ll take care of it eventually. I told the doctor, ‘I’m newly divorced, so as soon as I retire from these heels, I’ll be back to you and we’ll make sure these shoes will enhance their beauty, because these shoes are going to have a future, and they can’t look shabby for that.’
In 2014, the actress who played a leading role in “12 Years a Slave” was diagnosed with uterine fibroids, which are non-cancerous growths that can form within or near the uterus. This diagnosis came the very same year she received an Oscar for her outstanding performance in that movie.
Yet, she didn’t reveal her diagnosis until the year 2025, sharing on Instagram that she had been quietly enduring it for over a decade before then.
She expressed that during puberty, women are often made to understand that periods come with pain, and this discomfort is just an inevitable aspect of being female. However, she emphasized that many women endure these challenges on their own, as it significantly impacts their lives. (A more formal version might be: “She articulated that during puberty, the general understanding is that periods are accompanied by pain, a notion considered inherent to femininity. Yet, she underscored that this experience often leaves women grappling with these issues individually, given its profound impact on their lives.”)
In July 2025, the star of “Daisy Jones & The Six” revealed that she had been admitted to the hospital due to a hernia, which is a tear or weakness in the muscle wall often located in the abdomen or groin region, caused by wearing restrictive trousers.

Back in April 2025, the former star of “Beverly Hills, 90210” shared that he was recuperating following a surgery, as his appendix had come close to rupturing.
A week ago, I began experiencing abdominal discomfort,” Brian explained in a recent Instagram post. “This led me to the emergency room where I was diagnosed with an inflamed appendix, not yet ruptured but very close.
He added, “I’m on the road to recovery. It’s not an easy process. This is my first major surgery.”
Adam Devine revealed that the injuries he suffered from being struck by a cement truck at age 11 continue to impact him up until now.
In a 2025 episode of the “In Depth With Graham Bensinger” podcast, Devine expressed it as an extremely difficult and distressing time for him. He mentioned experiencing spasms throughout his body. For some period, the doctors had informed him that he was near death – quite literally, within the last year.
He observed that the pain fluctuates, expressing it as, “There seem to be several parts of my body that aren’t quite functioning perfectly.
Previously seen on Bachelor Nation, this individual divulged that intense back pain, which worsened while traveling in an RV with a companion, led him to seek medical help by crawling on his hands and knees to reach the hospital.
He shared in an episode of his Trading Secrets podcast on March 2025 that his legs from knees to toes were still feeling oddly numb and this was surprising to him. For context, he’d been squatting around 295 pounds just a few weeks prior, but now, he’s unable to do even a single-legged squat without falling over – as if he’d had a stroke or some similar incident. He added that he didn’t mean to sound arrogant when putting things in perspective.
But with the help of a back specialist and some steroids, he added, “We’re on the mend.”

In February 2025, the former star of Even Stevens revealed that she had been accidentally shot in the face during a trip to shoot clay pigeons as part of her husband Brendan Rooney’s birthday celebration.
Another individual with us accidentally discharged a firearm incorrectly, and it struck me in the face. Fortunately, @thebrendanrooney quickly responded, evaluated my condition, and hurried me to the hospital. I was wounded in five locations, with one bullet coming dangerously close to my right eye.
As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’d rephrase that statement like this: Recently, I encountered an unexpected situation where a small piece became stuck near my eye. The medical professionals advised that it’s not safe to perform surgery for its removal at the current moment. However, I’m pleased to report that my vision remains unaffected and I’m being closely monitored by my doctors.
I’ve realized just how much I cherish my daughters, husband, family, and friends. It felt like I saw my entire life unfold before me, and let me tell you this – seize every opportunity to give them a hug. Life can unexpectedly change in the blink of an eye.
In Amy Schumer’s own words during an episode of Call Her Daddy in January 2025, she expressed her gratitude for the internet as it provided answers when everyone else seemed to be criticizing her. She admitted that after a series of interviews, she found herself telling people to calm down due to her “puffier” appearance. However, medical professionals chimed in on social media, expressing concerns about her health, suggesting she might have Cushing syndrome. This puzzled Amy as she was being trolled by doctors.
After a group of physicians hinted that the potential cause could be high cortisol levels or steroid injections, Amy realized she had been receiving such injections for her scars. She explained, “I’ve been getting these steroid injections after surgeries like my breast reduction and C-section.”
Recalling this revelation, Amy said, “Wait, I’m being trolled by doctors? This is wild!” The discovery that she had a form of Cushing syndrome, which would eventually resolve on its own, brought her immense relief. In a News Not Noise newsletter published in February 2024, she expressed gratitude, stating, “Finding out I have the kind of Cushing that will correct itself and I’m healthy was the best news ever.

I wouldn’t wish an experience like that on any parent.
Hailey Bieber experienced a terrifying incident that she later referred to as the most frightening moment of her life. This occurred during a breakfast with her husband, Justin Bieber, in March 2022. She began exhibiting symptoms similar to a stroke, such as facial drooping and difficulty speaking. Hailey revealed this information a month later on YouTube, explaining that she couldn’t respond at first because she wasn’t sure if she was alright. Upon questioning again by Justin, she found herself unable to speak properly.
The right side of her face drooped, and she struggled to form a sentence. She went to the hospital to ensure her health was not compromised. The doctors discovered a small blood clot in her brain, which they classified as a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA).
Later, Hailey underwent further investigations at the University of California, Los Angeles, where they found a hole in her heart called a patent foramen ovale (PFO). She explained that the blood clot had traveled to her heart through this hole, escaped, and made its way to her brain, causing the TIA.
Hailey reported that she successfully underwent a PFO closure procedure and was now feeling well.
In the same year that Hailey encountered a health crisis, Justin also faced a similar ordeal when he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome. This condition led to temporary paralysis of parts of his face, which necessitated canceling the rest of his Justice World Tour. Justin explained on Instagram that this virus affected the nerve in his ear and facial nerves, causing one-sided facial paralysis. As a result, he was unable to blink one eye, smile on one side of his face, or move one nostril. He even mentioned it became increasingly difficult for him to eat. However, the paralysis eventually subsided, and Justin reported that he is doing well now. On a June 2022 episode of Good Morning America, Hailey shared that he was feeling better but acknowledged the situation had been quite scary due to its sudden onset. She expressed gratitude that he was recovering and would be completely fine.
Jamie Foxx, the Oscar-winning actor, initially chose to keep quiet about his hospitalization in April 2023. However, in his Netflix special titled “What Had Happened Was…” in 2024, he shared details of his ordeal. On a particular day in Atlanta, he recalled experiencing an excruciating headache and asked for an aspirin, but before he could get it, he collapsed and lost consciousness for about 20 days.
Initially, he was treated by a doctor who administered a cortisone shot and sent him home. Concerned about his condition, his sister Deidra Dixon drove him to a hospital where they discovered that he had a brain bleed which led to a stroke. After undergoing surgery on the 20th day, Jamie woke up in a wheelchair on May 4 and was unable to walk. He then traveled to Chicago for rehabilitation and therapy.
“I want to express my gratitude for every prayer,” he said, “because I truly needed them all.
The reality TV personality shared that she temporarily stopped breathing while competing in a mile run for the initial episode of the NBC show.
In her interview on Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser, she clarified that she couldn’t recall much. She did mention hearing a helicopter and feeling as if she was floating. Afterward, her grandfather appeared, followed by darkness. However, the next thing she saw was light, which led her to believe that she had passed away that day.
She went on explaining, ‘My internal systems were failing dramatically, and it turns out I had developed rhabdomyolysis. Essentially, my body was giving me a warning sign that it was on the verge of collapse.’
Emilia Clarke, who is known for her role in Game of Thrones, penned an essay titled “A Battle for My Life” in The New Yorker in 2019. During filming, she experienced a severe headache at the gym that resulted in vomiting profusely. The pain intensified and she became aware that her brain was injured.
She was rushed to the hospital for a brain scan where doctors diagnosed a subarachnoid hemorrhage, a life-threatening type of stroke caused by bleeding around the brain. She underwent immediate surgery to seal the aneurysm, which she described as unbearably painful. During her recovery, she also suffered from aphasia, speaking nonsensical words.
A week later, she regained her speech and was discharged from the hospital after a month’s stay. However, in 2013, a growth detected during a previous scan was found to have doubled in size, requiring another surgery. The operation failed, causing her to bleed severely. Doctors informed her that her chances of survival were slim if they didn’t operate again. This time, they accessed her brain through her skull.
Fortunately, she is now reportedly “at a hundred per cent.
Snoop Dogg’s daughter, Cori Broadus, expresses her gratitude towards her family following a severe stroke in January 2024. After she informed them about the stroke and sent a photo as proof, everyone rushed to assist her. Due to additional health issues, Cori had to remain hospitalized for longer than anticipated. She explained to TopMob News correspondent Will Marfuggi in December 2024 that her lupus was not cooperating, and her kidneys were failing. The situation was complex, with much going on at the time. Currently, Cori is recovering well. “I’m doing great,” she stated. “There were just some motor skills I needed to regain, but otherwise, I was fine.
During the formative years of her twenties, Shailene Woodley experienced several health challenges. To put it plainly, she encountered difficulties that affected her hearing, mobility, and digestion. As she described in a September 2024 episode of the SHE MD Podcast, “My hearing was fading, I couldn’t walk for more than five minutes without needing to rest, and anything I ate would upset my stomach.”
She faced a perplexing blend of health issues that required different diagnoses from various doctors. In an attempt to find answers and alleviate her discomfort, the actress sought help from both traditional medical professionals and holistic healers. Coming from a background in herbalism, she was determined to work with both conventional and alternative healthcare providers.
This quest for wellness took over a decade, during which time Shailene grappled with numerous physical challenges. As she reflected on this long journey, she explained that it also led to emotional struggles related to food fears, body image issues, and identity confusion. She admitted that her fear of food had grown due to her stomach discomfort, leading to mental distress related to body dysmorphia and self-image concerns.
However, after addressing both her physical and mental health challenges, Shailene is now thriving. “Thankfully, my health issues were eventually resolved,” she shared, “and I can say with confidence that I am healthy today.
