Actor Brian Austin Green has revealed he once lost the ability to walk and talk in a private health battle. \u00a0Youtube\/Reallyfamous<\/p>\n

\u201cI ended up with this neurological thing, and it was, like, stroke-like symptoms,\u201d the Desperate Housewives actor told the Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson podcast.<\/p>\n

He went on to say he battled the mystery illness 10 to 12 years ago. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt was never completely diagnosed … I had internal inflammation, so from diet,\u201d the actor said. \u201cAnd then, they think, just emotional stress, not handling things well…\u201d<\/p>\n

Green said the illness affected his speech and mobility, confessing he \u201chad to learn how to walk and talk again.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI had to learn how to sort of do everything again,\u201d he said. \u201cI couldn\u2019t read. I couldn\u2019t write. Who I was, essentially, was no more. My brain and my body completely disconnected.\u201d<\/p>\n

The father-of-five said he was terrified of what the illness would mean for his career and life. <\/p>\n

He added that once he started getting better, he began going to therapy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe emotions that I have been living with since I was a kid were a big factor in what was going on,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

Green was married to Fox from 2010 to 2021, which included the time he was battling with his mystery illness. \u00a0Getty<\/p>\n

\u201cI genuinely knew I was just sort of living in a state of constant fight or flight.\u201d <\/p>\n

Green was married to Fox from 2010 to 2021, which included the time he was battling with his mystery illness. <\/p>\n

Green and Fox\u2019s divorce was finalised on February 8, 2022. The pair share Noah Shannon, 11, Bodhi Ransom, 10, and Journey River, seven.<\/p>\n

Fox apparently broke up with Green in 2015, while he was in the midst of his illness<\/a>, before they got back together again, according to Page Six. <\/p>\n

The pair reportedly split the second time in 2020 when Fox came back from shooting a movie overseas, telling Green she \u201cliked herself better,\u201d when she was alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hollywood actor Brian Austin Green has revealed he lost the ability to read, talk, and walk due to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":870142,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,447,134],"class_list":["post-870141","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870141","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=870141"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870141\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/870142"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=870141"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=870141"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=870141"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
