Catherine Jacob struggled to breathe
“The recent hospitalization of Catherine Jacob is due to dehydration which caused great fatigue”said the company that produces the piece, in a press release on Monday before reassuring: “Her state of health does not cause any concern. The actress will soon return to Paris to prepare to participate in a shoot in early September”.
Having trouble breathing, she was quickly taken to the Duffaut hospital in Avignon after her performance at the Off d’Avignon festival, as our colleagues recall. Directly admitted to intensive care, she was then transferred to another service, which led her to cancel the other dates of her play. Still present at the hospital ten days after her admission, her agent has finally just given news to the Parisian and these are reassuring.

“Reassure everyone, everything is fine”assured Laurent Saury this Monday by telephone to our colleagues, before specifying: “With the temperature, she suffered a slight dehydration, but she is fine”. He confides, however, that she has not yet been able to return home, but that “shouldn’t delay”.
