Gal Gadot, known worldwide for her role as Wonder Woman, faced a real-life battle of her own while pregnant with her fourth child, Ori. The actress recently revealed she underwent emergency brain surgery after discovering a “massive” blood clot during her eighth month of pregnancy.
Gadot, 39, shared her harrowing experience in an emotional Instagram post, set to be published Sunday.
“In February, during my eighth month of pregnancy, I was diagnosed with a massive blood clot in my brain,” she wrote. “For weeks, I endured excruciating headaches that confined me to bed. Finally, an MRI revealed the terrifying truth. In one moment, my family and I were confronted with the fragility of life. It was a stark reminder of how quickly everything can change.”
Within hours of her diagnosis, Gadot underwent emergency surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Despite the uncertainty and fear surrounding the situation, Ori was born safely during this critical time.
Gadot and her husband, film producer Jaron Varsano, are parents to four daughters: Alma, 13, Maya, 7, Daniella, 3, and Ori, now 9 months. Married since September 2008, the couple chose the name Ori, meaning “my light,” with deep personal significance.
“Before the surgery, I told Jaron that when our daughter arrived, she would be the light waiting for me at the end of this tunnel,” Gadot explained. “Thanks to an extraordinary team of doctors at @cedarssinai and weeks of dedicated care, I made it through and began my road to recovery. Today, I am fully healed and filled with gratitude for the life I’ve been given back.”
Gadot reflected on the lessons she learned from the ordeal, emphasizing the importance of listening to one’s body.
“Pain, discomfort, or even subtle changes often carry deeper meaning,” she wrote. “Being attuned to your body can be lifesaving.”
She also highlighted the need for awareness about cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), the condition she experienced. “I had no idea that 3 in 100,000 pregnant women in their 30s develop a blood clot in the brain. While rare, it’s treatable if identified early. Sharing this isn’t to frighten anyone but to empower. If even one person takes action for their health because of my story, it will have been worth sharing.”
Gadot first announced Ori’s birth in March, sharing a photo of herself cradling her newborn in a hospital bed. “My sweet girl, welcome,” she captioned the post. “The pregnancy was not easy, but we made it through.”
Through resilience and courage, Gadot has emerged from her health crisis with a renewed sense of gratitude, inspiring others to prioritize their well-being.
WATCH : Jesse Watters sparks outrage on The View with a hilarious joke
Some stories involve so many odd aspects that they’re hard to beIieve, such as a recent spat involving Target’s woke Santa nutcrackers, Fox News host Jesse Watters joking about those nutcrackers, and the ladies on ABC’s “The View” going absolutely berserk over what he said about them.
As background, Target has decided to ignore whatever lesson it could have learned from outrage over aspects of its Pride Month apparel, such as Satanist-designed clothing, and released a number of pieces of woke Christmas decor that, predictabIy, infuriated conservative groups.
The company’s decision to release such products comes despite its financial losses that some connect to conservative boycotts and outrage.
FNC’s Jesse Watter responded by mocking the woke items, both on FNC and on X. Posting a clip of himself on X, Watters captioned it by mocking the items, saying, We’re witnessing the Dylanization of corporate America.
Companies are committing financiaI sui cide- one after the other. Target hired Gay Cruella to run their merchandising strategy and now they’re selling g ay nutcrackers and disabled Santa’s. And if you want one, you can just steal it, because they won’t stop you.
Joy Behar of “The View” then got particularly angry about Watters’ remarks, yelling, on the show, You know I realize it’s a complex idea to get your mind around, Mr. Watters, but does Fox News understand that not every human being is heterose xual and caucasian? I don’t think they see that!
