Here’s why Lila Moss wears an insulator everywhere she goes
Lila Moss who started her career at the tender age of 14 is gaining respect from people everywhere.
The daughter of Kate Moss is suffering from Type 1 diabetes. In an interview in 2020, the model said:
“I think not many people know that I have diabetes. It’s not visible from the outside, so no one would really know just by looking at you.”
The life Lila is living might look glamorous on the outside but she is suffering silently. The model needs to wear a monitor at all times to ensure her body is functioning properly.
Diabetes doesn’t allow her pancreas to produce enough insulin-the hormones which regulate the amount of glucose in the blood.
Lila wears the pump to monitor her blood sugar levels.
The teenager wears her pump everywhere; from fashion shows to red carpet events.
Lila proudly wears her pump and internet users are admiring her for that.
Being the daughter of one of the most famous faces on earth, Lila chose to follow in her mum’s footsteps in modeling. But she refused to hide her disease from the world.
Instead, she shows it off proudly and that is her way of advocating secretly for people suffering from the same disease.
Recently at the Met Gala, Lila had a small circle monitor on her arm and a pod on her thigh as the pump. Netizens appreciated her for showing off her weakness as her strength.
