Antonio Banderas' Girlfriend Saved His Life

Antonio Banderas has credited his girlfriend Nicole Kimpel for saving his life when he suffered a heart attack in 2017.

The actor was rushed to hospital after suffering chest pains while exercising, which were later discovered to be a heart attack, and said his girlfriend was the key to his survival as she had happened to buy maximum strength aspirin for a headache the day before.

Speaking on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!', he said: "The night before that I had this event, my girlfriend, she had a headache and we didn't have anything in the house. So she went out to buy something, a painkiller or whatever. She bought this aspirin, which is the only thing that she found and she found the maximum one, I think it was five milligrams.

"The next morning, when I started having the symptoms and I clearly knew what was going on, she put one of those aspirins inside of my tongue and that saved my life. So I had a second chance, and some stuff changed in my life, since then."

The 59 year-old has been outspoken about the fact that he feels the heath scare was a turning point in his life, and said he is now devoted to opening up and being honest.
