After rising to fame on The X Factor in 2008, she bagged a No1 single with Once and album with The Tainted Cherry Tree.

She said: 'I wanted to hop on here because for the last four years, I've come on socials to talk about how I've had debilitating pain and it's been a bit of a mystery. 

'To be honest I've been using socials a lot to help me because like a lot of women my age, I've had pain and I've not known what it is.

'Unfortunately, this is a thing with women's health, we are misdiagnosed, there's not a lot of research and money into women's health and considering we are half of the population that's very infuriating.'

The X Factor star continued: 'Finally two weeks ago I had a laparoscopy, my pain has been lower back pain, leg pain, pelvic pain, severe bloating, it's not a very sexy feeling. 

The video was met with a stream of excited comments, including one from Professor Green who commented the track 'needs a rap verse'. Diana and Ki replied: 'We’re all ears'

Other fans declared: 'It’s officially summer now this banger is back,' whilst another compared the release of the viral track to Mariah Carey's infamous Christmas countdown

'Anyway I've been told it could be endometriosis, IBS, but after my surgery a doctor came to speak to me and talked me through images of what they found and it was actually something I've never heard of. 

'They spoke to me and said this is what they're pretty sure that they have found by looking at my veins in my pelvis. I've got something called pelvic congestion syndrome. 

'Pelvic congestion syndrome is something found in women and it's basically when the veins in your pelvis stop working properly and pool with blood and they wrap and twist around your ovaries and it's extremely painful. 

'Even hearing that for someone that has had so many scans and blood tests and been told nothing was ever found, to be sat there this relief I felt, because I felt like I was going absolutely mad for years.'

Diana is hoping by sharing her diagnosis and health journey other women going through 'mystery illnesses' will feel less 'lonely' and it will raise awareness.
