Gal Gadot recently shared a harrowing experience she faced during her fourth pregnancy on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. While promoting her film Snow White on the show, Gadot revealed her terrifying ordeal with a life-threatening health scare. She spoke about discovering blood clots while pregnant and the urgent medical intervention that followed.
Describing herself as “very pregnant,” Gadot recounted experiencing severe headaches that were initially misdiagnosed as migraines and hormonal changes. Despite seeking medical attention, her symptoms persisted until her mother insisted on an MRI scan. The scan revealed the presence of blood clots, prompting an immediate hospitalization and emergency thrombectomy procedure to remove the clots.
Gadot commended the medical team at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles for saving her life and emphasized the importance of taking troubling symptoms seriously. She expressed gratitude for her daughter’s health and credited her as a beacon of light during a challenging time.
The actress, already a mother to three girls, welcomed her fourth daughter, Ori, in March 2024 with her husband. Gadot’s candid revelations on The Tonight Show and social media underscored the fragility of life and the resilience that comes with facing unexpected challenges.
