Goldie Hawn reveals a heartbreaking health condition at the Oscars

The 97th Annual Academy Awards gathered the most prominent Hollywood figures together for yet another memorable night.

Actress Halle Berry had her “revenge” kiss on Oscar-winner Adrien Brody on the red carpet, which saw the crowd, including Brodie’s girlfriend Georgina, clapping and laughing.

The opening ceremony saw Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande shine in their full glory. Zoe Saldaña gave an emotional speech, and Conan O’Brien had his Oscar hosting debut.

The film Anora won five Oscars and owned the night, but it was the heartbreaking revelation by Goldie Hawn about a health condition that had everyone talking.

The actress was on stage alongside Andrew Garfield presenting the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film.

However, at one point, she stopped her speech, which she read from the teleprompter, and turned to Garfield with the words, “OK. Sweetheart, can you read that? I can’t read that.”

She then revealed, “I’m completely blind. I mean, I am,” explaining that she suffers from cataracts.

It is a condition that happens when the lens, a small transparent disc inside your eye, develops cloudy patches, according to NHS.

Over time these patches usually become bigger causing blurry, misty vision and eventually blindness.

They are most common at elderly people but can affect anyone.

Garfield showed just how big of a gentleman he is telling Hawn, “OK, I’ve got you,” before revealing the winner.

The response to the revelation about her health condition concerned the fans of Goldie Hawn.

A source close to the actress said she regretted sharing her condition because she didn’t mean that news to become a talking point.

“Goldie is embarrassed that the focus of her Oscar night was her vision issues, it is not something she wanted everyone talking about,” the source said, as per the Daily Mail. “She was just trying to be funny.”
