The brunette beauty is also famous for her love life, as she previously dated famous YouTuber Shannon Beveridge. Most recently, Fletcher was forced to postpone her tour amid her Lyme Disease diagnosis.

She took to Instagram on Sept. 13, 2023, to break the news to her 918K followers. “I have recently been diagnosed with Lyme disease. I started becoming increasingly ill over the last couple years and just kept pushing even though I knew there was something deeper going on,” her statement began. “For the last few months I’ve been receiving treatments, following doctor’s orders and doing my best to learn more about this invisible illness.”

“Lyme has affected me in a variety of ways and while it has not only taken a tremendous toll on my physical body, it has also caused concern for my voice as well,” the 29-year-old went on to write. “This has worn on my soul in a way that’s hard to even put words to as singing is the thing I love most in this world and my voice is my vessel for expression.”

Later, Fletcher revealed that she postponed her tour until 2024 in order to focus on her health. “Unfortunately, touring and singing every night just isn’t something my body is capable of in this moment and I want to show up for you all 100% and give you the best show that I know that I have in me and one that you deserve,” she continued. “I can’t wait to perform for you bigger and better…and most importantly, stronger than ever next year. But for now, I want to thank you for listening and thank you for all of your endless love and support. I love you all so much. Please take good care of yourselves.”
