Celebrity psychic medium Tyler Henry has revealed he has successfully undergone brain surgery.
The reality star, 29, had most of a 'colloid tumor' removed from his brain and will now be on bedrest for a month.
The star announced the operation on Wednesday with a photo of him in his hospital bed, which appeared to have been taken after the surgery.
A bandage was on his head as he snuggled into his pillow with a smile.
'Brain surgery was a success! Great prognosis, incredible staff, and I feel so thankful to be surrounded by my family. I'll be on bedrest for a month and look forward to getting back to doing readings.
'For those of you who connect with me virtually, not much should change as far as private reading giveaways and group readings, right now I'm just on the mend. For those curious, I had a colloid tumor near the center of my brain and thankfully most of it has been removed! (The tumor, not my brain… that is.)
'This isn't my first rodeo with this and I have so much to be thankful for - I'll see ya'll very soon with lots of thought-provoking subjects and of course, readings. Thank you all so much for your support.'
Tyler previously underwent an emergency brain surgery at age 18 following the discovery of a congenital cyst.
The cyst, which is benign, needs to be regularly drained when it grows too large as it would be too risky to remove completely, according to The Cut.
'I have wondered if it relates to my ability at all,' he told the publication last year.
The Hollywood Medium With Tyler Henry star also endured a collapsed lung in 2019 and has congenital blebs on his lungs that he needs to keep an eye on.
He suspects his health has been impacted by his work as a psychic medium.
'It's the biggest question I have: Why, if this is something of a gift, does it come at a cost?' he told the outlet.
Opening up about the brain cyst on Instagram, Tyler posted a photo of him giving a reading as a teenager just before the health scare came to light.
'This photo was taken a month after my 18th birthday in the backyard of my childhood home,' he wrote on Instagram in 2023. 'I was doing readings on camera in my small town of Hanford, CA. Only a week later an MRI revealed a congenital brain cyst that lead to emergency surgery after weeks of headaches. A mass I was born with was only now causing a life-threatening situation as my adult life was just beginning.
'Despite all that, this project allowed for one of my most exciting moments as an early medium - reading an entire diner full of strangers, as well as delivering messages in my teenage haunts of China Alley (later featured on @lifeafterdeathnetflix).
'This experience taught me early on the importance of timing and trust. Without the inevitable brain surgery that ensued, I don't think I would of had such a firsthand awareness of the fragility of life. It was an intimate reminder for me of the fine line dividing this realm and the next.'
The surgery revelation comes just a week after Tyler - who worked with the Kardashians in 2015 - tied the knot with his longtime beau Clint Godwin.
The lovebirds appeared to go about tying the knot the simple way, opting to head to their local Beverly Hills courthouse.
Henry shared a single photo of their pair with his 1.2 million followers and wrote, 'Today, we are married! Life with you is an endless sleepover with my best friend and life's just getting started.'
He added in the heartfelt note: 'I knew when we met nearly a decade ago that you would be the one, and that conviction only grew stronger with every day. Best premonition ever!'
An engagement was never announced, but Henry told E! News in 2019 that he'd likely be the one to propose.
The newlyweds' love story began in 2016, when Tyler gave Clint a reading.
'He had seen me on [Keeping Up With the Kardashians]. He messaged me and said that he'd be interested in a reading,' the star opened up to GLAAD in 2022.
The E! personality added, 'I knew the second I saw him that I had something that I needed to share with him regarding his grandfather, who had died.'
He explained, 'His grandfather had recently taken his own life. As I connected with him, I relayed exactly why that decision was made. Immediately, I found myself a part of his family, being immersed in what they were going through.'
Tyler shares bits of his life with his now-husband on social media regularly.
On Valentine's Day he posted a photo of the two in wet suits at the beach, adding a thoughtful message.
'We've grown up together and there's no one else I'd rather grow through time with. Whether I'm 29 or 92, this love will always be my guiding force, a reprieve from all of life's heaviness. That's what @clintxgodwin is for me,' he said.
And in March he uploaded another picture of the pair, adding, 'It's @clintxgodwin's birthday! Hurtling toward 30 isn't so bad with coconut cake and good company.'
