“Game of Thrones” star Emilia Clarke has revealed she suffered from two nearly fatal aneurysms in the early years of the series. Martin’s books, a 24-year-old Clarke suffered a “a life-threatening type of stroke” in the locker room of a London gym and was taken to a local hospital shortly after for brain surgery. Meanwhile, the pain — shooting, stabbing, constricting pain — was getting worse,” Clarke recalled in the essay. After the first surgery, Clarke informed her “Game of Thrones” bosses about the condition, but pledged to proceed with press commitments and shooting as planned. “Countless people have suffered far worse, and with nothing like the care I was so lucky to receive.”Read the entire essay at The New Yorker.
