Daisy is now married to husband Tom Bateman, who she stared dating in 2017 and sparked engagement rumours when he was spotted with a ring on his wedding finger in 2019.
It comes after Daisy revealed she has been diagnosed with Graves’ disease.
Daisy opened up about her experience with the autoimmune disorder for the first time during an interview with Women’s Health magazine, in which she told how she mistakenly blamed her symptoms on a ‘really stressful’ film role.
Graves’ disease is an autoimmune condition where your immune system produces antibodies that cause the thyroid to produce too much thyroid hormone, according to the NHS.
The cause of Graves’ disease is unknown, but it mostly affects young or middle-aged women and often runs in families.
After suffering from symptoms including hot flushes and fatigue following the filming of the psychological thriller Magpie, Daisy visited her GP, having put her health woes down to the role.
Opening up about her health battle, the Disney star shared that it was her ‘first time’ speaking publicly about her Graves’ disease.
She shared: ‘I thought, Well, I’ve just played a really stressful role; presumably that’s why I feel poorly.’

However, she was then urged to see an endocrinologist (a medical practitioner who treats patients with hormone-related diseases), who later informed her that her symptoms can sometimes be referred to as ‘tired but wired.’
The star had struggled with symptoms that included hand tremors, racing heart rate, weight loss and fatigue.
After being made aware of what could be happening to her, Daisy had a moment of realisation, noting: ‘It was funny, I was like, “Oh, I just thought I was annoyed at the world,” but turns out everything is functioning so quickly, you can’t chill out.’
But while the Young Woman and the Sea star felt sad over her health condition, she also felt some frustration seeing as she was someone who physically took good care of herself.
Despite this, Daisy embarked on some lifestyle changes to help her manage the disease, including eating a mindful diet which she’s ‘not super strict about’ and practicing self-care including exercise to ‘make myself feel good.’
After implementing these changes, the beauty explained that she found herself feeling better and more aware of life around her, noting: that she ‘didn’t realise how bad I felt before.’
