On the 53-year-old "Dancing With The Stars" judge took to Instagram and explained the reason behind the decision.
According to Inaba, she wants to focus on her wellbeing for now since "health is the most important thing."
She then added the hashtag #AutoimmuneWarrior on the caption, expressing her health's current standing. For what it's worth, she is suffering from several autoimmune conditions including vasculitis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, and Sjogren's.
The condition affects the function of body parts as the immune system attacks them since it sees them as foreign. The proteins, called autoantibodies, affect even healthy cells.
"I appreciate the love and support from all of you and from my family at The Talk. I hope to be back soon! Ready for action! I'm sending you all my love. And I'll update you on my progress... talk soon," she wrote on the caption.
Aside from the aforesaid details, she refused to reveal more details about her health condition.
Still, her break is a must right now since autoimmune patients have higher risks of suffering from COVID-19 symptoms. Fortunately, Inaba succeeded in her fight against COVID-19 last year.
In her absence, Jerry O'Connell served as the guest co-host during Monday's episode. It remains unknown whether he will continue filling the seat.
