Justin Timberlake’s recent battle with Lyme Disease has forced him to rethink his priorities in life and put more focus on repairing his shattering relationship with wife Jessica Biel and his kids.

The 44 year old star recently shared that he’d been battling some major health concerns during his Forget Tomorrow world tour. ‘I have been going through some serious health issues and was diagnosed with Lyme Disease, which I don’t say so you feel bad for me’- he shared.

But he did mention that he wants people to cut him some slack, as it’s a debilitating condition that is taking a toll on him both mentally and physically.

Another source that was close to Timberlake shared more about how this recent diagnosis is altering him, and it has really opened up his eyes.

He knows now that he cannot keep pushing at full speed without it taking a toll. “He continues to share with people that if he’s going to slow down, he wants to spend that kind of energy on Jessica and the little ones and not work or late nights, just keep his family as his biggest priority’- the source shared.
