Country music star LeAnn Rimes is sharing her go-to home remedies for two health issues amid the controversy surrounding her viral jaw release video.
“No, after being on antibiotics, I’m trying to heal thrush in my throat and acid reflux… dear lord help me,” Rimes, 43, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Friday, May 9, over a photo of the singer holding a clear drink on ice.
“Sunshine, grounding [and] coconut water & aloe vera juice with fresh rosemary from our yard,” she added, outlining the ingredients in her drink helping her treat her illnesses.
Rimes has been in the spotlight as of late for her experience with alternative medicine, including the now-viral video of the singer having a “deep jaw release” to ease tension in the body.
“Healing isn’t always quiet,” the singer captioned a March 29 video shared via Instagram, featuring Garry Lineham, cofounder of the wellness platform Human Garage, reaching into Rimes’ mouth as she expressed pain at different pressure points. After nearly 60 seconds, the singer started to cry, signifying that her jaw was back in alignment.
“Sometimes it’s a physical letting go of things,” the captioned continued, “we didn’t even know we were carrying.”
The video went instantly viral, prompting many to allege that the video was somehow fake and that Rimes was simply acting.
“The people were commenting on [the post], being [like], “Of course the camera was on, she was gonna cry,” Rimes said on the April 18 livestream with Lineham, addressing the viral claims. “I’m like, ‘I can act, but I am not that good.’ I am not that good. I’m not Meryl Streep.”
After seemingly attacking Rimes for allegedly taking her “husband, kids, boobs, bronco” and “random illnesses,” The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Brandi Glanville came to the singer’s defense.
“She really is sick,” Glanville, 53, said on the Thursday, May 7, episode of her “Brandi Unfiltered” podcast. “She has something. I know she gets sick every time she leaves the country, much like myself. We’re twinning all the time.”
Glanville went on to reveal that her two sons, whom she shares with ex-husband Eddie Cibrian, have shared updates on Rimes’ illnesses with her. (Cibrian, 52, has been married to Rime since 2011.)
“They are like, ‘She is so sick,’” the reality TV star claimed. “They are so health-conscious, [and] they have, like, a hyperbaric oxygen chamber in their dining room.”
She continued, “She really is sick, she does have laryngitis, she has a tooth situation and everything she’s doing is to protect her moneymaker. That’s been her life for, think about it, since she was a child. So, they go to bed at 8:30. They have, like, a whole room of all these machines and lymphatic drainage and they wake up at 4:00 and do yoga. They’re, like, ‘Health, health, health.’”
