Boyle, who rose to fame thanks to “Britain’s Got Talent” in 2009, astounded viewers with a performance during the season 4 finale.
Susan Boyle, an actress, is transparent about her health.
The Scottish singer who first became famous on Britain’s Got Talent in 2009 made a surprise appearance on the season 4 finale. After her performance, Boyle said she had a stroke the previous year.
She joined the West End cast of Les Miserables in order to perform “I Dreamed a Dream,” the song that made her famous when she first appeared on the competition show.
Boyle, 62, said of her performance, “It feels great. Because I suffered a mild stroke there in April of last year, it has special significance for me. ”.
She continued, “I’ve worked really hard to get back on stage.
Simon Cowell, the head judge of the competition show, praised Boyle for her courage after she gave a health update. The 63-year-old Cowell continued, “Susan, we owe you so much and I knew you weren’t well, but if anyone was going to come back you were going to be the one because it wouldn’t be the same without you.
The “Wild Horses” singer also talked about playing live again on social media. She uploaded pictures from the special evening to her Instagram. “I had the privilege of performing tonight at @bgt with the wonderful cast of @lesmizofficial,” she continued. This occasion was all the more memorable for me because I had a stroke in April 2022. ”.
“Tonight my hard work and perseverance paid off, singing the song that started it all, ‘I Dreamed A Dream,'” she wrote in the post’s conclusion. I have been striving to regain my speech and singing for the past year with the single goal of being able to perform on stage once more. ”.
According to the Mayo Clinic, a stroke occurs when the blood supply to a particular area of the brain is interrupted or reduced. A headache, paralysis, difficulty speaking and understanding others are just a few examples of the symptoms of a stroke.
