I'm sorry because I don't know exactly where to post this soooo, feel free to move it around.
Okay, anyone know of any celebrities with Celiac Disease?
The only thing I've heard is that Bill Clinton has it but wouldn't announce it publically because wheat is so cheap to produce that he didn't want to hurt the economy by people getting tested and then eliminating some of the wheat eaters.....
This sounds very rumorish to me....

Bill Clinton said that he has a "wheat allergy" and eats gluten-free on the Rachel Ray show last year. I saw the episode, so that much isn't a rumor.
Elizabeth Haselback from The View is a Celiac--she has spoken about it and even had Dr. Peter Green (her doctor) on the show.
Susie Essman from Curb Your Enthusiasm, as well as Heidi Collins, a CNN Anchor and her son are also Celiac.

I've also "heard" that Victoria Beckett (Posh Spice) has it as well, although I've found conflicting information on the web about it.

Keith Olbermann, of MSNBC, or whichever network he hosts a news show on, has celiac.
