On August 29, the singer's boyfriend and the pastor at the Empowerment Temple AME Church in Baltimore, Maryland, revealed her health struggles while calling for prayer.
"ALERT!!! I need your prayers for @tweet," Bryant wrote on Instagram. "She's been admitted in hospital for blood clots in both lungs & right arm! Doctors can't trace it but God is a healer!"
He added, "prayer still works..."
Bryant and Tweet became public with their relationship last year on the set of the talk show pilot "Preachers." There, Bryant sat alongside co-hosts E. Dewey Smith Jr., the senior pastor at The House of Hope churches in Atlanta and Macon, Georgia; John Gray, an associate pastor at Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas; and Orrick Quick, pastor and founder of God Seekers Church in High Point, North Carolina, who brought their wives on the show.
The Baltimore-based pastor welcomed his girlfriend onto the program and revealed how they met.
"A year ago I was walking through Times Square going to an Oprah Winfrey movie premiere and I bumped into R&B Singer Tweet, who is my absolute favorite female singer in the world," said Bryant. "And I pulled an Orrick move and asked for a picture. We have grown into an incredible friendship; I call her my 'last lady.'"
The singer, who rose to fame with the No.1 R&B song "Oops (Oh My)" in 2002, spoke about rededicating her life to Christ.
"I'm doing gospel. I rededicated my life to Christ so that's something that's important to me and I really need to do that," she said in a Gospel Goodies report last year. "It won't be traditional gospel ... But my message will be different than it was before and I think people right now are hurting. They want something real and they want to relate."
She added, "I think that's what gospel is and I think I'm going to bring them God in a different way that they can relate to."
