‘Thank you Jesus for saving my life’: Spice clears the air on health scare

Dancehall artiste Spice was hospitalised last week after developing sepsis.

She made the revelation in an Instagram post on Wednesday afternoon, breaking her social media hiatus to clear the air about her recent health scare.

“Thank you Jesus for saving my life. Hey Besties I’m in a better space today to properly update you on my current health situation. I suffered a damage hernia a few days ago that sent my body into sepsis, as a result I was rushed to the hospital for immediate surgery,” she stated.

The ‘Go Down Deh’ singer also denied social media rumours of her being in a coma and suffering a heart attack.

“As you know I’ve been off social media for a while to rest mentally, so little did I know that during my medical scare it was already been said that I had a heart attack, I was in a coma, and I also died but none of that is true,” Spice said in her post.

Reports of Spice being hospitalised surfaced last week with many wishing her a speedy recovery, which included a prayer from Minister Marion Hall.

The ‘Queen of Dancehall’ who made her post after deciding in October to take a break from social media wore a blue dress with gold trim, in a solemn pose with her hands clasped as if in prayer.

She told her ‘besties’ in the post that she is still recovering and apologised for cancelling her upcoming show which was slated for the Cayman Islands on November 25.

“I’m still recovering from what really happened so thanks so much for all the prayers and concerns, please take great care of yourself, eat, live, love laugh, like it’s your last day, I LOVE YOU ALL SO SO MUCH and yuh dun know Gracie always ago be herself, so I guess this is no more Jumping off a speaker boxes for me,” the artiste joked.

“To all the promoters that has a confirmed booking with me please accept my humble apology.

“CAYMAN I Know you was up next, for 25th of this month however I’ll see you at a later date. Any further information needed there’s always a contact in my bio. THE QUEEN LOVES YOU ALL,” she said.
