Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory neurological disease. It is an incurable, chronic and often debilitating disease where the body attacks itself and damages the protective insulation surrounding the nerve fibres (myelin) in the brain and spinal cord.
Blair, who will appear in the Netflix series Another Life, said the “profound” help she received from costume designer Allisa Swanson had inspired her to speak openly about her condition. She released the announcement via Instagram, candidly describing the troubles she is experiencing with the simplest of tasks, such as getting dressed.

On Thursday, Blair shared an image of not the MRI, but an x-ray, ahead of her announcement on Saturday via Instagram.
She wrote with the image: ‘Throwback Thursday to mid August. My neck pain was so severe I finally got an x Ray. Notice that straightened neck. We don’t want that. #kyphosis #stenosis #degenerativediscdisease and this was just the beginning. Btw. Aren’t x rays fascinating? Anyone have anything to add? This is fun #c4 #c5 #c6 smushed #aging #equestran #whiplash It is also how you can eventually get that awful hump you sometimes see [emoji with gritted teeth] with age.’
