Wonder woman, indeed.Gal Gadot underwent emergency brain surgery after discovering a “massive” blood clot while she was pregnant with her fourth daughter, Ori.The actress revealed the health diagnosis in a forthcoming Instagram post on Sunday.“In February, during my eighth month of pregnancy, I was diagnosed with a massive blood clot in my brain.For weeks, I had endured excruciating headaches that confined me to bed, until I finally underwent an MRI that revealed the terrifying truth,” Gadot, 39, wrote.

“In one moment, my family and I were faced with how fragile life can be.It was a stark reminder of how quickly everything can change, and in the midst of a difficult year, all I wanted was to hold on and live.”The “Wonder Woman 1984” star underwent “emergency surgery” within hours of arriving to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in LA.
