The rapper's daughter suffered a stroke Thursday morning and posted about the health scare on her Instagram Story.
Snoop Dogg's daughter, Cori Broadus, has been hospitalized after a serious health scare. On Thursday, the 24-year-old daughter of Snoop and his wife, Shanté Broadus, posted a photo on her Instagram Story from a hospital bed, revealing she suffered a "severe" stroke.
Cori posted on her story early Thursday morning, saying she "started breaking down crying" when doctors told her about the stroke.
"I had a severe stroke this a.m. I started breaking down crying when they told me," she wrote in a two-photo slide to her followers. "Like I'm only 24; what did I do in my past to deserve all of this."
Cori didn’t provide any further details on what led to her stroke or her recovery, but the only daughter of the rapper has previously opened up about her difficult health journey after being diagnosed with lupus at six years old.
ET reached out to a rep for Snoop Dogg for further comment.
In September 2023, Cori opened up to People about her lupus diagnosis. She detailed lifestyle changes she made to try and control the condition.
"I've been good, better than I've ever been," she shared. "I stopped taking all of my medication like five months ago. I'm just doing everything natural, all types of herbs, sea moss, teas. I started working out [and] drinking lots of water. So now I think my body's like, 'Okay, this is the new program, and she's getting used to it.'"
"I've had medication since I was 6 years old, depending on these drugs all my life. So I wanted better for myself," she added at the time. "I wanted to change because it just became a lot. I'm only 24 years old, taking 10 to 12 pills every single day. So I kind of just went cold Turkey."
Cori said she knows there's still more lifestyle changes to make that could benefit her health. "It's continuously a learning process because there's so much more I could be doing," she explained, noting that she still struggles with "eating terribly" and "not getting the proper rest."
"If I can do a whole 360 change and just get healthy all around, I think I would be so good," she said. "But I tell people all the time, it's a day-by-day process. Things are going to take time. Nothing is going to happen overnight."
According to Mayo Clinic, lupus is a disease that arises when the body’s immune system begins to attack its tissues and organs. The disease can also cause inflammation, directly affecting joints, blood cells, lungs, heart, and more. Because it affects multiple organs in the body, it can increase the risk of a stroke. Lupus Corner states that "the risk of stroke is 4-times to 8-times higher in lupus patients, due to inflammation influencing the tendency of blood to clot and vasculitis stiffening the blood vessels."
