Lil Tay appears to be facing a health battle. 

Over a year after the teen was involved in a death hoax, the verified social media account of the internet personality—whose real name is Tay Tian—shared an update on her health. 

"Tay has been diagnosed with a life threatening heart tumor," read the message posted to her Instagram Sept. 12. "We ask kindly for everyone’s love and prayers."

Alongside the note, the account also shared what appeared to be a video X-ray of the tumor. 

And after some fans expressed concerned that this was another instance of spreading false information about the 17-year-old, Lil Tay's account clarified that "something is indeed wrong."

"This time, she is in the ICU," a second note shared to her X account Sept. 12 alleged. "She was diagnosed with a heart tumor."

The following day, the account also posted another update, telling her fans on X, "Tay is about to undergo major open-heart surgery to remove her heart tumor."

Noting that the surgery is a "critical procedure," the messaged added, "We ask for your prayers for a successful operation."

In light of the news, fans offered their support and well-wishes to Tay, with one user writing on X, "NOOO I hope she recovers."

E! News reached out to Lil Tay’s rep for comment but has not heard back.

The health announcement comes over a year after a statement was posted to Lil Tay's account that claimed she and her older brother Jason had both passed away. 

"It is with a heavy heart that we share the devastating news of our beloved Claire's sudden and tragic passing," read the August 2023 Instagram message. "We have no words to express the unbearable loss and indescribable pain. This outcome was entirely unexpected, and has left us all in shock."

Shortly after, Lil Tay's management confirmed her death to Variety, though both her dad Christopher Hope and her former manager Harry Tsang would not confirm nor deny her passing when contacted by Insider.

But Lil Tay soon shut down the hoax with her own statement. 

"I want to make it clear that my brother and I are safe and alive, but I'm completely heartbroken, and struggling to even find the right words to say," the social media star said in a family statement to TMZ in August 2023. "It's been a very traumatizing 24 hours. All day yesterday, I was bombarded with endless heartbreaking and tearful phone calls from loved ones all while trying to sort out this mess."

She added, "My Instagram account was compromised by a 3rd party and used to spread jarring misinformation and rumors regarding me, to the point that even my name was wrong. My legal name is Tay Tian, not 'Claire Hope.'"
