Gordon Ramsay Shares Skin Cancer Diagnosis

Pink is taking her recent health setback in stride.

The “Get the Party Started” singer shared a few of the coping mechanisms she employed as she dealt with an unexpected illness during a summer getaway.

“When you go on vacation and have food and E. coli decides to move into your gut you kill it with friends and daughters and red wine,” the 45-year-old wrote in a message shared to her Instagram Aug. 30. “And a vitamin IV concoction.”

The Grammy winner—who shares daughter Willow Sage Hart, 14, and son Jameson Moon Hart, 8, with husband Carey Hart—added, “This is all normal and everything is going really well.”

Escherichia coli (E. coli) is described as a group of bacteria that can infect the gut, urinary tract and other areas of the body, according to the Cleveland Clinic. While it can often live in the gut without issue, it can occasionally lead to diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps and fever.

But despite the setback, Pink (born Alecia Beth Moore) chose to look on the bright side of her ailment.

“Ahhh life and lemons and lemonade,” she captioned the post, “and great memories that I might remember.”

The medical mishap may have put a damper on Pink’s time off, but she still managed to have a fun-filled summer. In August, she stepped out with Willow and Jameson for a night of live theatre as the trio attended the 10th anniversary performance of Hamilton at the Richard Rodgers Theatre in New York City.

The rare outing was particularly special as Pink has frequently spoken of her daughter’s passion for the arts.

“As a mother, I am happy as long as my kids are being their authentic selves, and they’re not a–holes,” Pink wrote on Instagram alongside a clip of Willow backstage at The Great Gatsby on Broadway in October. “But having a theater kid? Ultimate dream slash best case scenario.
