The Boys star Erin Moriatry reveals Graves' disease diagnosis in health update
Erin Moriatry, best known for her performance in the 2019 drama series The Boys, has revealed she has been diagnosed with the autoimmune condition Graves' disease. The 30-year-old actor said in a recent Instagram post that she received treatment within 24 hours of her diagnosis and has been 'increasing in strength ever since'. 'A month ago, I was diagnosed with Graves' disease,' she said. 'Within 24 hours of beginning treatment, I felt the light coming back on.' She urged fans who feel their light 'dimming' to get checked. 'Don't 'suck it up' and transcend suffering; you deserve to be comfy. S***'s hard enough as is,' she added. In the series of photos shared alongside the health update, Moriatry posted a screenshot of a text exchange with her mother where she wrote, 'I'm serious; I really need relief. I feel nauseated tonight. I feel so s*** and removed from who I am, I can't live like this forever.' In another screenshot of a text to her father after beginning treatment, she said: 'I already feel a world of difference, primary thought (as of now): 'Damn, this is how I'm supposed to feel? I've been missing out!' xx.' She also told her followers: 'Autoimmune disease manifests differently in everybody/every body. Your experience will be different from mine. My experience will be different from yours. Perhaps greatly, perhaps minutely. One thing I can say: if I hadn't chalked it all up to stress and fatigue, I would've caught this sooner.' Graves' disease is a form of hyperthyroidism where the thyroid gland is overactive and produces too much thyroid hormone. It is caused when the body's immune system produces antibodies that disrupt the thyroid to make too much thyroid hormone (thyroxine). According to the NHS, symptoms may include a fast heart rate or palpitations, diarrhoea, tremor, difficulties sleeping, weight loss, irregular periods, and feeling hot, hungry or anxious. Some patients may experience neck swelling or bulging eyes, which is called Graves' ophthalmopathy. Treatment typically includes an antithyroid drug called carbimazole. In some young people, Graves' disease runs its course over a few years and the thyroid recovers. In others, treatment needs to continue using the drug carbimazole or by having the thyroid gland removed by surgery (thyroidectomy). Moriatry rose to fame across four seasons of Eric Kripke's superhero drama The Boys, as Annie January, a superhero who goes by the name Starlight. Her other credits include 2013 film The Kings of Summer and 2016's Captain Fantastic.

Don't miss out on the headlines from Tennis. Followed categories will be added to My News.

The Australian, whose tennis career has been blighted by significant injuries over the past three years, took to Instagram over the last 24 hours for a Q and A session with his 4.1 million followers. Using the caption 'Don't hold back, ask whatever', Kyrgios was hit with a wide range of questions and chose to respond to a number of them using Instagram stories. Among queries about his tennis career and his advice for others, the Canberran was also asked a question by someone who has been following his styling trends.

Kyrgios replied with a video of him driving and the caption: '30 is unreal – not even in my prime yet. And shaved heads is UNREAL.' You can see the new look in the video below. Cracks had appeared in Kyrgios and Hatzi's relationship earlier this year. In a telling sign in this day and age, they both removed each other from their Instagram bios before Hatzi broke her silence on the rumours in April. 'It's been great,' Hatzi told The Daily Telegraph when asked about her life since the romance ended. 'I'm still going on with work and I have a few different brands that I'm working with at the moment.' She went on to insist that it's important to 'put yourself first' in life. Naturally, Kyrgios – who has stayed quiet about the details of the separation – was also asked about Hatzi during his fan session. 'Will you ever talk on the split with C or keeping it private?' was one question. He said: 'Things happen. I wish her nothing but the best. So many incredible memories that will stay with me.' Kyrgios was also asked what he thought of another former partner, tennis player Anna Kalinskaya, who later had a relationship with current world No. 1 Jannik Sinner which ended in May.

Earlier this month, Kyrgios got tongues wagging after a public display with a woman being called a Hatzi 'look-alike'. Kyrgios began chatting with former Love Island reality TV contestant Mia Dalkos. It has not gone unnoticed that Dalkos, whose real name is Efthimia, has unmistakably similar features to the woman Kyrgios recently broke up with. Kyrgios and popular fashion designer Dalkos caused a stir with flirty recent social media engagements. Dalkos captured Kyrgios' attention on Instagram when she shared a video of herself glammed up at a hair salon. Kyrgios sparked romance rumours with Mia Dalkos (left) and his post on Hatzi. Photos: Instagram Kyrgios commented on the post by sharing a 'double eyes' emoji — a less than subtle way of showing Dalkos that he was interested in the post. The 23-year-old South Australian responded to the former Wimbledon finalist by posting a shy smiling emoji of her own. The 30-year-old Canberran followed up his first message by posting a blunt 'Beautiful' comment on a second photo Dalkos shared the following day. Kyrgios was also in the news in the past week after it emerged he had been axed from a commentary role with the BBC. Reports first landed on Wednesday morning this week the Australian tennis star has been told his services will not be required when the network begins its coverage of Wimbledon, beginning June 30.

In another body blow, The Telegraph reports Kyrgios will also not appear during ESPN's coverage of the tournament, despite working with the American broadcaster during the Australian Open in 2024 and 2025. It has been a brutal few weeks for the 30-year-old after he was last month forced to pull out of his plans to play doubles with partner Jordan Thompson at the French Open. Citing a recently flared up knee injury, Kyrgios was forced to pull out on the eve of the event and he last week confirmed he will not play at Wimbledon this year because of injuries.
