In a report published on July 15, a source told the outlet: “It was early on in the event, and she sat there for a while as they took her vitals. It didn’t look that bad, but they took her away anyway.”
In 2022, Danner revealed she had battled the same disease — oral cancer — that claimed the life of her husband, Bruce Paltrow, in 2002.
Danner shared: “Everyone is touched by cancer in some way, but it’s unusual for a couple to have the same cancer. I remember I looked up at heaven and said to Bruce, ‘Are you lonely up there?’ It’s a sneaky disease. But I’m fine and dandy now. And I’m lucky to be alive.”
She further confessed: “I kept it from my kids for a long time. I wanted to forge ahead as a mother, and I didn’t want them to worry.”
The Goop founder later expressed her understandable concern when Danner broke the news.
Gwyneth said: “I was obviously very shocked. It was scary. And it felt really eerie because it was so similar [to my dad’s].”
Gwyneth also discussed how her mother underwent a third surgery procedure with Dr. Mark DeLacure in 2020 to combat the disease.
Gwyneth gushed: “She went through it with so much grace. I was amazed at how strong she was able to be.”
RadarOnline previously reported that in 2022, Gwyneth feared contracting the same cancer after witnessing what both her father and mother endured.
A source mentioned that Gwyneth had been getting regular cancer screenings and prioritizing her health but was still “carrying a ton of anxiety over this.”
