Penelope Cruz Reveals She Suffered ‘Many’ Brain Aneurysm Scares

Jul 07 · 12 views

Penélope Cruz revealed that she has suffered from several brain aneurysm "scares" in recent years, though she is fine and it was a false alarm. The actress, who shares two children with Javier Bardem, said the health issues inspired her to focus on her well-being, noting she doesn't drink, smoke, or party. Cruz also criticized the lack of research into women's health issues compared to men's, calling it a level of control or suppression. Earlier this year, she spoke about experiencing brain aneurysm symptoms while filming "The Black Ball," which she learned about before a night shoot. She took the evening off and was medically cleared to continue production, calling it a miracle. The film premiered at Cannes to a 16-minute standing ovation.
