The most recent update on her health was back in July 2021, during her interview with The Hollywood Reporter. While Woodley chose to remain tight-lipped on the name of the Illness, she claimed that it was "pretty debilitating."

Woodley also added how the unnamed illness affected her acting career. Woodley said, “I said no to a lot of projects, not because I wanted to but because I physically couldn’t participate in them, and I definitely suffered a lot more than I had to because I didn’t take care of myself. The self-inflicted pressure of not wanting to be helped or taken care of created more physical unrest throughout those years.”

Shailene Woodley also added that she is at the "tail end of her Illness," and although it left her shaken up, it has made her wiser too. Woodley said, “It’s an interesting thing, going through something so physically dominating while also having so many people pay attention to the choices you make, the things you say, what you do, what you look like" She also added, “It spun me out for a while. You feel so incredibly isolated and alone. Unless someone can see that you have a broken arm or a broken leg, it’s really difficult for people to relate to the pain that you’re experiencing when it’s a silent, quiet, and invisible pain.”
