“Dancing With the Stars” pro Rylee Arnold had fans worried after revealing she had forgotten her insulin after boarding a flight. Arnold, who has Type 1 diabetes, posted a TiKTok on July 31 that explained her scary situation.
“Just got on the plane and went to grab some insulin from my bag because my blood sugar is starting to go high,” Arnold wrote over a video of her on the plane looking worried. “Then when I looked in my bag I couldn’t find it ANYWHERE! I’m now just realizing I left it at my apartment ð.”
The video was set to Justin Bieber’s song “What Do You Mean?” and Arnold wrote in the caption, “Never have I ever done this to myself, at least itâs a short flight ð should I just drink a bunch of water or something?? ð #type1diabetes.”

Rylee Arnold Handles Her Diagnosis Well
Aside from this one mishap, Arnold manages her Type 1 diabetes very well. She has even spoken about how it has helped her grow as a person. She recently shared with Woman’s World, âItâs a hard diagnosis … but I think itâs made me stronger and more mature.”
Arnold has also collaborated with the beverage company Swoon to create her own healthy drink, Swoon x Rylee Arnold Pink Lemonade. âWhat really aligns me is that their lemonade is zero sugar and zero carbs. And for a type 1 diabetic, that is anyoneâs dream, because itâs a yummy drink that does not spike your glucose levels,” she explained.
