Justin Bieber is on the road to recovery.
The pop star’s wife, model Hailey Baldwin, said on ABC’s “Good Morning America” that her husband is “doing really well” after experiencing partial facial paralysis due to Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
“He’s getting better every single day,” Hailey said Wednesday. “He’s feeling a lot better, and obviously was just a very scary and random situation to happen.”
She said it’s been “really amazing” to see an outpouring of support for Justin after he announced his health issue last week.
“He’s gonna be totally OK, and I’m just grateful that he’s fine,” Hailey said.
Ramsay Hunt syndrome is caused by a shingles virus that impacts a facial nerve. Justin, 28, spoke about the condition in an Instagram video last week.
“As you can see, this eye is not blinking,” he said. “I can’t smile on this side of my face. This nostril will not move.”
Justin’s health scare comes after Hailey suffered a ministroke in March and underwent a procedure to close a small opening in her heart.
She said Wednesday that she’s “doing well” and no longer on medication.
