Justin Bieber is expects to recover after "scary" Ramsay Hunt syndrome which left him with half of his face paralyzed, Hailey Bieber told "Good Morning America" on Wednesday.

Justin Bieber announced that he was canceling a series of shows after being diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, a rare complication from the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles.
The singer posted a video last week showing how half his face had been temporarily paralyzed.
Most patients make full recoveries from Ramsay Hunt syndrome, but some can have long-lasting symptoms that never fully go away.
But Justin Bieber expects to recover fully from the disease, Hailey Bieber said.
"Obviously it was just a very scary and random situation to happen," she said. "I'm just grateful that he's fine."
Patients with Ramsay Hunt syndrome have been coming out in support of the singer's situation.
"The support has been really amazing just from fans, friends, family," Hailey Bieber said.
