Daisy Ridley disclosed her diagnosis with Graves’ disease in an interview with Women’s Health. The Star Wars actress learned of the autoimmune disorder last September while filming Magpie, experiencing symptoms like rapid heart rate, weight loss, tremors, and fatigue. “I thought, ‘Well, I’ve just played a really stressful role; presumably that’s why I feel poorly,’” she said. Ridley now manages her condition with medication, therapeutic treatments, and a special diet. Graves’ disease affects the thyroid gland and can lead to hyperthyroidism. It’s more common in women over 30. Other celebrities, like Wendy Williams, have also shared their experiences with the condition. (THR)
