Vana Barba: Reveals the cause of her stroke

Vana Barba spoke on the *Breakfast@Star* show, revealing for the first time the cause of the stroke she suffered this summer.

As the actress explained, the mental stress from the disappointment she experienced from people close to her led to an increase in her blood pressure and the stroke. "After a very difficult summer, I'm thankfully well... Some of my own people betrayed me and caused me huge sadness... This pressure, this mental upset, raised my blood pressure and that's where the damage happened. It hit me in the head," she said.

Vana Barba emphasized that the stroke was not hemorrhagic, which allowed her to maintain her speech. She also mentioned that after the incident, she isolated herself for three months in order to regain her strength.

"I was completely alone, I didn't go out, I didn't see anyone. But now, I'm back on my feet and I feel grateful that I overcame it," she concluded.
