Bonnie Tyler’s friend issues gut-wrenching update
The paper further reported that the Total Eclipse of the Heart star is to remain in the induced coma in an intensive care unit at Faro Hospital. That is, until doctors can control the “serious infection” she got following the burst appendix.
Now, a friend of Bonnie Tyler has spoken out, giving a worrying update on the 74-year-old Welsh star. Speaking on Good Morning Britain, long-term friend Liberto Mealha said that they hope she will improve as soon as possible.
“I could not see her because she’s in intensive care, but we are praying for better news. The doctors are positive with the situation, but so far it’s not that good,” Liberto Mealha, whose daughter counts Bonnie Tyler as her godmother, said.
Bonnie Tyler has long lived between Faro, Portugal, and her home in South Wales. In recent years, she has suffered from several health issues.
Spoke about health issues
She told Hello! Magazine that the main health issue has been her knees.
“I’m fit enough at the moment, touch wood, and I’m really enjoying doing the shows,” Bonny Tyler said. “I’m still rocking on that stage with my wonderful band, and if you’ve got your health, you’ve got everything. I do home Pilates, only 20 minutes a day – it’s something I can do in my hotel rooms.”
“I have had problems with my knees; I didn’t have new knees, I had what they call washouts [a surgical knee procedure], which turned out to be very successful. So, hopefully that will last for a long time,” she continued.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Bonnie Tyler and her loved ones.
