Wyclef Jean explains recent hospitalization: “Sometimes we forget our body is our temple”

Wyclef Jean was recently admitted to a hospital. He revealed the news on Instagram Monday in a video of him being rolled on a wheelchair into his room.

“Alright, taking me to the room now,” he says in the clip. “Overnight, I never stayed in a hospital overnight. Should be fine though.” In text written over the video, he noted, “Sometimes we forget our body is our temple. Be back soon.”

Though Wyclef’s post failed to disclose the reason for his hospitalization, he later told TMZ he was experiencing facial numbness, which Dr. Waleed Lashin believes is likely the result of exhaustion. Lashin ordered tests that required Wyclef to stay at the hospital overnight, but he’s since returned home, with more tests scheduled next week. He told the outlet he’s thankful to all fans who expressed their concern.
