In a video posted on Justjared, Antonio Banderas talks about how his girlfriend Nicole Kimpel saved his life when he had a heart attack back in 2017.
The 59-year-old actor was on the Halloween show of Jimmy Kimmel Live! Dressed up as Zorro, besides talking about his arriving in the US in 1990, Antonio talked about the night before the medical emergency.
“The night before that I had this event, my girlfriend, she had a headache and we didn’t have anything in the house. […] 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,” Antonio explained.
