Australian glamour model Sahara Ray has opened up about a recent health condition that has left her in a wheelchair.
The daughter of Aussie surfer Tony Ray took to social media on Sunday to reveal she is suffering from Guillain-Barré syndrome, a condition that sees the immune system attack the nerves.
‘My whole life changed in an instant,’ Sahara, 31, wrote alongside a series of clips of her journey with the disease.
In a TikTok video posted earlier this month, the model explained that she is currently paralysed from her upper thighs down to her feet.
Sahara added that she is relying on a wheelchair and cannot walk without the aid of a walker.
