Marvel actor Florence Pugh was recently on an episode of “Running Wild with Bear Grylls.” According to UNILAD, the actor spoke about a rare medical condition, called tracheomalacia, that she had as a child, which put her in and out of hospitals from ages three to six. The upper-respiratory condition causes windpipe walls to collapse, making it hard to breathe. Pugh even mentioned that she moved from England to Spain due to the condition.
“When I was younger, [doctors] kind of just advised that a hotter climate would be better,” the actor said (via People). “From a young age, I’ve just had a different breathing system. But now as an adult, unless I get ill, it doesn’t really affect me as intensely as it did when I was younger.”
This isn’t the first time the “Little Women” actor mentioned the condition. In a February 2020 interview with Vogue, Pugh said that nowadays, it’s just “a very scary cough” when the condition flares up. The magazine mentioned that it’s the reason she has a raspy voice at times, and it also gave her an “uncommonly mature singing voice” as a child. We are happy that the condition hasn’t stopped her from becoming an amazing actor.
