Jameela Jamil has defended her long list of health conditions after being accused of having Munchausen syndrome in a row over her posting a photograph of a peanut butter pretzel snack when she has spoken in the past of a severe nut allergy.
The Good Place actress batted away criticism on Twitter from confused fans who asked whether she had made up her peanut allergy after posting the photograph on Instagram this week.
She says her peanut allergy lessened or ‘cleared up’ as she got older – something doctors say can happen but is rare.
The online row however spiraled and prompted some critics to question Jamil’s other health problems.
