The rumor began after a French newspaper — Var-Matin — reported Brigitte was recovering at home in Saint-Tropez, France, after spending three weeks in the hospital.
According to the publication she underwent surgery related to a “serious illness.”
It also noted that back in 2023, Bardot was already hospitalized due to “respiratory failure.”
