Iconic french actress Brigitte Bardot has broken her silence after false rumours claimed she had died. The 91-year-old shared a statement to social media, where she insisted any speculation about her death was “fake news” shared by a “fool”.

Earlier this month, Brigitte was rushed to hospital with a “serious illness” and required surgery. However, around the same time, influencer Aniss Zitouni, better known as Aqababe, took to social media to say the actress had died.

In posts on multiple platforms, the influencer wrote: “According to my exclusive information, Brigitte Bardot died today. Her coffin was ordered in Saint-Paul-de-Jarrat in the 09 (Ariège) department. An icon has passed away, leaving behind an unforgettable legacy and an eternal imprint on the hearts of the French.”

However, Brigitte herself has confirmed that she is still alive and that she has also signed a letter to X promising that she has no intention of ceasing anytime soon, calling the rumor “fake news.”

She wrote, “I don’t know which fool made this false news about my disappearance tonight,” but you can be assured that I’m doing well and that I have no plans to leave.”

Before returning to her Saint-Tropez home, Brigitte spent three weeks in a private hospital in Toulon following her operation. The actress’s spokesperson confirmed to the media that she is “resting” and “doing fine.” She had surgery alone, but the illness has not been revealed.

The famous actress was reportedly suffering respiratory problems at her home on the French Riviera when she was reportedly suffering in July 2023. Her husband, Bernard d’Ormale, claimed at the time that she was suffering from a “respiratory distraction” and could no longer handle the heat. She appeared to improve after receiving oxygen from the doctors, though.

Brigitte, who was born in Paris in 1937, is now hardly ever seen in public. She is one of the most well-known actresses of the 1950s and 1960s. She had already established herself as a model when she first appeared on the front cover of Elle when she was 15 years old.

She went on to be known across the world for her performances in films such as And Got Created Woman and Viva Maria!, but retired from acting in 1973 to focus on being an animal rights activist.

By the time she retired, Brigitte had acted in 60 songs, 60 movies, and appeared in several musicals. For her contributions to animal rights and entertainment, she has received numerous awards.

Brigitte once said, “I knew I had to be the best at something, otherwise I would be nothing,” when describing her childhood dreams. I was aware of Brigitte Bardot’s significance to the world.

When asked if she could co-host a show with her ex-husband Patrick Kielty, This Morning’s star Cat Deeley retorted sharply.

After 13 years of marriage, the couple unexpectedly split up earlier this year. They have typically kept their relationship a secret.

However, Cat, who is celebrating her 49th birthday today (Thursday, October 23), provided a rare insight into her relationship with the County Down-born Patrick during an appearance on the Live with Kelly and Mark Show last year.

Prior to the announcement of their split, the This Morning presenter revealed to hosts Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos that she was not keen on the idea of presenting the ITV show alongside Patrick.

She continued, “As a stand-up comedian and host, there was some doubt at the time about whether my husband would do it.” So everyone said, “Oh, is he going to do it with you as well,” and I replied, “No thank you.”

What happens if you have a row at home, Cat responded when Kelly said it might be “surprisingly pleasant”?

Cat and Patrick first met while co-presenting the BBC talent show Fame Academy in 2002. They remained friends for many years until 2011, when Patrick flew to Los Angeles to attend Cat’s birthday brunch, turning their friendship into a romantic relationship. Less than a year later, they tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony in Rome.

The couple has now welcomed two sons: James, who was born in 2016, and Milo, who was born almost two and a half years later.

However, they broke up earlier this year and made a statement about their split after 13 years of marriage. We have decided to end our marriage, and we are now separated, according to a joint statement from them. No other party is involved, really.
