“You know, this is not something that I've ever talked about publicly but I have ulcerative colitis and I've had to make so many changes to my diet and exercise routine,” Rhiannon said on the show. "You have to find a way to mesh it. It's very hard. Different foods affect people differently, it's amazing."

Mayo Clinic shares that “ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and ulcers (sores) in your digestive tract." Unfortunately, this impacts the “innermost lining of your large intestine, also called the colon and rectum."

The organization shares that ulcerative colitis can cause a slew of symptoms that include “diarrhea, rectal bleeding, fever, fatigue, weight loss, rectal pain, and more.”

Thankfully, ulcerative colitis isn’t typically a fatal disease; however, Mayo Clinic explains that it’s very serious and should be monitored by your healthcare provider. In some cases it may even lead to "life-threatening complications."

Although Rhiannon is remaining positive about living with the disease, Dr. Jennifer did share that the disease is something that can affect Rhiannon’s children via genetics.
