Gravel later addressed her absence in a live Instagram session, providing an update on her well-being and unveiling the launch of her new beauty line, \u201cLove Who You Are,\u201d coinciding with her return to QVC programming in January.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from her hosting duties on QVC, Gravel is known for her Belle line of jewelry, fashion, and beauty products. During her Instagram live on January 14, 2024, Gravel acknowledged the \u201cradio silence\u201d on her social media and revealed that she had experienced a challenging few months due to what she referred to as a \u201cmedical trauma.\u201d She confessed to working excessively and neglecting her health.<\/p>\n<p>In a candid revelation, Gravel disclosed that she had been diagnosed with Bell\u2019s palsy, a condition characterized by temporary weakness or paralysis of facial muscles, resulting from damage to the facial nerve. This condition is identifiable by visible drooping on one side of the face.<\/p>\n<p>Gravel shared on social media, \u201cA few weeks ago, I woke up, and half of the side of my face was paralyzed with Bell\u2019s palsy.\u201d She admitted that she was still in the midst of the challenging situation, and the official diagnosis had taken her by surprise. Despite the ongoing difficulties, Gravel emphasized the profound lessons she gained from facing Bell\u2019s palsy, stating that it made her appreciate the preciousness of life.<\/p>\n<p>According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, the exact cause of Bell\u2019s palsy remains unknown. It is sometimes associated with viral infections, diabetes, or occurs in pregnant women. While the condition can resolve within six months for many individuals, some may experience lingering effects, highlighting the unpredictable nature of Bell\u2019s palsy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-1 flex justify-start gap-3 empty:hidden\">\n<div class=\"text-gray-400 flex self-end lg:self-center justify-center lg:justify-start mt-0 -ml-1 visible\"><button class=\"flex items-center gap-1.5 rounded-md p-1 text-xs text-token-text-tertiary hover:text-token-text-primary md:invisible md:group-hover:visible md:group-[.final-completion]:visible\"><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex items-center gap-1.5 text-xs\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"w-full pt-2 md:pt-0 dark:border-white\/20 md:border-transparent md:dark:border-transparent md:w-[calc(100%-.5rem)]\">\n<div class=\"relative flex h-full flex-1 items-stretch md:flex-col\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full items-center\">\n<div class=\"overflow-hidden [&:has(textarea:focus)]:border-token-border-xheavy [&:has(textarea:focus)]:shadow-[0_2px_6px_rgba(0,0,0,.05)] flex flex-col w-full dark:border-token-border-heavy flex-grow relative border border-token-border-heavy dark:text-white rounded-2xl bg-white dark:bg-gray-800 shadow-[0_0_0_2px_rgba(255,255,255,0.95)] dark:shadow-[0_0_0_2px_rgba(52,53,65,0.95)]\">\n<div data-grammarly-part=\"button\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"amkYk\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"ptGJG\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Around Christmas 2023, QVC viewers were left concerned as Kim Gravel, a beloved host, unexpectedly disappeared from the home-shopping network\u2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":29052,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[9361],"class_list":["post-29051","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-kim-gravel"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29051","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29051"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29051\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
