âI was diagnosed with lupus, and Iâve been through chemotherapy. Thatâs what my break was really about. I could've had a stroke," Selena told the mag.

During an interview with radar Online in May 2014, Selena's grandfather, Ricardo Gomez Sr. also discussed her diagnosis. "Sheâs in treatment. Sheâs getting along pretty good. What worries [us] more is that she doesnât know how to say no. She wonât take time for herself to relax, to eat well," he said at the time. Same time rumors suggested Selena entered a treatment facility to help her deal with pressures caused by both work and personal matters (ie. her split with Justin).

âIâm so f***ing nice to everybody, and everyone is so vile to me. Iâve been working since I was 7. Iâve been a UNICEF ambassador since I was 17. Itâs so disappointing that Iâve become a tabloid story,â Selena further said.
