For the past few days, the French actress Brigitte Bardot has been at the heart of all concerns and for good reason, according to the magazine France Dimanche, she was hospitalized in Toulon for “respiratory failure”. She would have remained several days “in intensive care” and would have been prescribed “at least three weeks of convalescence in the establishment”.
Despite this medical recommendation, the 88-year-old star would have preferred to leave the establishment to return to his haven of peace, La Madrague, “after four days”. Still according to our colleagues, Brigitte Bardot would suffer “serious after-effects due to her breathing difficulties and, no doubt, lack of blood oxygenation… cognitive disorders affecting oral expression and writing would handicap her so severely”.
Faced with these new revelations, Yves Bigot, general manager of TV5 Monde and biographer of Brigitte Bardot, was the guest of Touche not at my post this Tuesday, May 2. Close to the artist, he gave his news. “We tell her, we have to go to the hospital, it bothers her, she has no desire to go there and she has only one idea, it’s to get out of there as soon as possible”, he explained and added: “Hospitals, she knows, she has undergone a very large number of abortions, so she knows what the hospital is, she knows what physical suffering is and moral that accompanies it”.
Press officer Fabien Lecoeuvre was also worried about the star, who is a fervent animal defender with her Brigitte Bardot Foundation. “She is a huge icon. So the fact that we know that she is almost 89 years old, that she suffers from respiratory failure, that she escaped from the hospital because she a real personality, a strong head, all that makes us all a little worried”.
However, the state of health of the Saint-Tropez icon is still under surveillance. According to the information revealed this Wednesday, July 19, 2023 on BFMTV, the firefighters intervened this morning at the home of Brigitte Bardot for “breathing difficulties”. The latter would have been the victim of an illness at home.
During the day, her husband Bernard d’Ormale returned to the rescue intervention with his wife. “It was around 9 a.m. when Brigitte had trouble breathing. It was harder than usual but she didn’t lose consciousness. Let’s call it a moment of respiratory distraction. The firefighters are arrived, made her breathe oxygen and stayed a moment to watch her”, he testified to Nice-Matin by revealing an anecdote. “The ambulances got the wrong address.”
Despite their carelessness, help arrived in time to rescue the famous animal rights activist. “His pulse is fine, his heart too and his blood pressure is good but things are still fragile,” explains her fourth husband, a businessman by profession. The latter, however, specifies to our colleagues that his wife recently complained of the heat “despite the air conditioning which is not very strong at home”. Now, the octogenarian would rest peacefully with his loved ones in his famous Madrague.
