Rumours indicated a deterioration in the health of 88-year-old Brigitte Bardot. The actress responded on Wednesday via a handwritten letter posted on Twitter.
Last week, she sent a scathing open letter to President Emmanuel Macron. The former glory of French cinema had sharply attacked the head of state, denouncing his "inaction" and "cowardice" on the theme of animal welfare. "I'm doing very well. The press made a scandal with a malaise that happened to me in January and of which we make a fuss today," she wrote.
