Max Verstappen's partner Kelly Piquet reveals battling hair loss during post-COVID recovery

Piquet has gained over a million followers on Instagram in recent years. She regularly posts about her lifestyle, dressed in chic fashion, sharing her life events with her followers.

Recently, she participated in a Q&A session where a fan questioned her health and recovery journey. Piquet revealed that she was diagnosed with COVID-19 in early 2022, following which she had a difficult time recovering.

"In the beginning of 2022 I got COVID-19 and after that, my health, during that year, completely plummeted. I was ill every 6 weeks and would never fully recover. Also, my anemia, which I had since a teenager, got even worse, which then heavily affected my hair loss."

She then wrote about her trainer who helped her recover from this, which took quite some time:

"Around September 2022 I decided to work with @lifeasJane. And she completely transformed me and taught me so much about health and well-being. It wasn't until a few weeks, months into 2023 that I felt like I was back to myself. Healing takes time and dedication. No quick fixes."

Max Verstappen and Kelly Piquet are going through a major stage in their lives with an expanding family. As for the former's racing career, he is currently chasing his fifth consecutive World Championship, however, McLaren's pace at the front of the grid currently seems out of bounds for Red Bull's RB21.
