Gwyneth Paltrow Remembers her ‘Physical’ Grief after her Father’s death

Gwyneth Paltrow is an actress and businesswoman from the United States. She has won numerous awards, including the Academy Award, the Golden Globe Award, and the Primetime Emmy Award. Paltrow rose to prominence after roles in films.

Gwyneth Paltrow is speaking up about her grief over two decades after her father Bruce Paltrow died.

On the April edition of Holly Willoughby’s By the Light of the Moon podcast, the Oscar winner, 49, reflected on the death of her filmmaker father Bruce, who died in 2002 at the age of 58 after a protracted battle with throat cancer. Her initial sadness was “so physical” at the moment, she added, and she “felt it was going to break me up.”

“I woke up in the middle of the night and I thought I was having a heart attack. The only reason I didn’t call the emergency services is that I didn’t know that in England you dial 999; in America it’s 911. Honestly, I thought I was dying. It was really, really tough.”

“The first year was just beyond— I don’t know how we all got through it, my mother, my brother, and I. It was pretty messed up. Anyone will tell you, who loses the love of their life like that, there’s just no other way but through You just try to process your grief and keep going.”
