EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Actress Christina Applegate learned she does not have multiple sclerosis after a recent medical re-evaluation.

Christina Applegate at the 29th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards held at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles, on February 26, 2023.

Since 2021, Christina Applegate has been one of the most famous advocates for living with multiple sclerosis. Now she says she has discovered that she doesn’t actually have the disease.

Applegate shared the shocking news Tuesday during an episode of the podcast she hosts with the actress and MS patient Jamie Lynn Sigler about life with MS, “MeSsy.”

Sigler had been hosting the podcast solo for seven months while Applegate dealt with her worsening health. Talking to Sigler in her return appearance, Applegate got emotional when she described how her doctor had told her that recent test results had ruled out the condition.
