According to Portuguese media reports, well-known British singer Bonnie Tyler is in an induced coma after emergency bowel surgery.
It is reported that the 74-year-old artist felt unwell on April 30 in Portugal, where she lives part-time. She began to experience severe abdominal pain, after which the singer was hospitalized in a hospital in Faro and underwent surgery.
Earlier, Tyler's manager said that the operation was successful, but doctors are currently not giving any prognoses regarding her condition. It is also unknown what will happen with the concerts scheduled for May and June in various European countries.
Earlier in 2025, the singer already underwent knee surgery, which forced her to partially change her touring schedule. At that time, she said that she continues to perform and maintains her fitness with home pilates sessions.
Bonnie Tyler, whose real name is Gaynor Hopkins, was born in Wales and became world-famous in the 1970s-1980s. The song Total Eclipse of the Heart brought her the greatest fame. Her hits Holding Out for a Hero and It’s a Heartache are also widely known.
In 2013, she represented the United Kingdom at Eurovision, and in 2023, she received the title of Member of the Order of the British Empire.
