Speaking to Canadian singer Emma Gryner, Una said: "I remember when I joined The Saturday’s first, you probably hear it a lot on my early recordings, my voice is a lot huskier, now I do have a huskier tone that comes out sometimes, like a rasp.
"I found it was happening more and more and I went in one day to demo a song we were doing with the girls and the producer went “Ok, can you do that again” and he looked really worried."
After losing her voice on tour, she was examined by a doctor who asked had she ever had her thyroid examined, which then led to her diagnosis.
Revealing she is now on lifetime medication, Una said: "So now I am on thyroxine, I have to take it daily, forever. But I am totally healthy and completely normal."
Una continued on to urge people to look out for the signs, and if they sense that there might be some type of issue, get checked for it as she said she was lucky to have been diagnosed so early.Explore more on these topics:
