‘I Suffer’: ‘Friends’ star Christina Applegate gained 18kg due to serious illness

The actress, who played one of Rachel’s sisters in seasons 9 and 10 of Friends, is now unable to perceive herself on screen. Christina admitted that her appearance changed due to a serious illness.

Since 2015, she has worked on the Netflix series Dead to Me. The artist could not immediately force herself to watch the new season of the project: she played in the frame already in a changed appearance. Christina’s health problems started two years ago: she complained of leg pain and tremors. As a result, the star was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

It is an autoimmune disease that affects specific areas of the central nervous system, further leading to unpredictable physical, cognitive and emotional symptoms. There is no cure for multiple sclerosis, it only helps to relieve symptoms or slow the progression of the disease.

Christina could watch the new season of the series with her participation only after many months. “I don’t like to watch myself suffer. And I also gained 18 kilograms thanks to physical inactivity and medication. I didn’t look like me and I didn’t feel like me,” Applegate said in an interview with The Los Angeles Times.

Bruce Willis has announced his retirement from acting. The Hollywood actor has been diagnosed with aphasia, a brain disease that causes a decline in language skills. Bruce is about to become a grandfather for the first time: his daughter Rumer is pregnant.
