Gal Gadot’s looking back on the tough times she had in 2024 when she was expecting her fourth child.
“2024’s been super challenging and got me thinking deep. I wrestled with whether or how to share my story,” the 39-year-old Gadot wrote on Instagram on December 29. “In the end, I let my heart lead.”
“Maybe this is how I make sense of it all, showing the real, fragile side behind our polished social media posts,” she went on. “Most of all, I hope sharing helps others in a similar spot.”
Gadot spilled that she was found to have a “huge blood clot” in her brain in February, when she was eight months pregnant.
“For weeks, killer headaches had me bedridden. Then an MRI dropped the bombshell,” she wrote. “Suddenly, my family and I saw how fragile life is. It was a wake-up call that things can flip in a flash. All I wanted was to hold on and get through.”
