For now, her team says she is resting and recovering in good spirits. The message of gratitude to her doctors and the assurance that she is home have brought relief to many who feared the worst when reports of her hospitalization first surfaced. Though the details were not confirmed officially, the 91-year-old actress is reportedly in a “worrying state,” though there is some optimism for her recovery. She may be discharged from the hospital should her post-surgery continue smoothly.
This is not the first time that Bardot has had to deal with major health problems. In January 2023, she was hospitalized due to respiratory failure that later resolved. Little news has been heard about her since then. In 1973, Bardot retired from the industry after decades as one of the world’s most desired actresses. She was also a regular presence in the nightlife of her beloved French Riviera.
