Selena said tonight: "As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus, an illness that can affect people in different ways.

"I've discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges.

"I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off.

The pop star has recently been in the middle of a spat with ex Justin Bieber

"Thank you to all my fans for your support. You know how special you are to me, but I need to face this head on to ensure I am doing everything possible to be my best.

"I know I am not alone by sharing this, I hope others will be encouraged to address their own issues."

A close friend said of the worrying toll the events had taken on the singer: "Justin and Selena's relationship is notoriously rocky and it hasn't been easy to see him move on so publicly with Sofia.

"But Selena is used to seeing him with other women — it's the combination of being over-worked and under pressure.

"She's been touring for four months non-stop and won't rest until mid-December with her Revival tour still to hit Europe and South America.

When he took a pop at followers posting abusive comments about Sofia, Selena added her own, writing: "Don't be mad at your fans. They love you. They were there for you before anyone."

In 2014, she checked into rehab after undergoing treatment for lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease with symptoms including body aches, fevers and extreme fatigue.

She said back then: "I needed time to just be OK."

I hope she soon feels back to her brilliant best.
