Ashton Kutcher (44) and his Mila Kunis (38) are known to be very secretive about their private lives.
Breaking the silence: – Terrible
Now, however, Kutcher lifts the veil, and tells for the first time about the fight against a rare disease, writes AND! news.

Kutcher is a guest on the latest episode of “Running Wild with Bear Grylls”, a program where famous faces challenge their limits in nature with presenter and adventurer Bear Grylls (48).
It’s in a sneak peek of the episode, which Access Hollywood shares, that the actor opens up about the illness nightmare for the first time.
Hasn’t happened in four years
– About two years ago I had this strange, very rare form of vasculitis. It knocked out my sight, my hearing and my ability to balance, he tells Grylls candidly in the clip.

Vasculitis is an inflammation of the blood vessels, which causes the immune system to attack the body’s own blood vessels and organs. The inflammation can lead to the blood vessels being completely blocked, which in turn can lead to damage to the skin, nerves and other organs due to a lack of blood supply, writes Large Norwegian encyclopedia.
Showering habits attract attention
Furthermore, the “That ’70s Show” star says that it took him a year to recover from the illness.
– You don’t appreciate things in life until they’re gone. I didn’t know if I’d ever see again, I didn’t know if I’d ever be able to hear again, I didn’t know if I’d ever be able to walk again.
–
In the clip, Kutcher, who has children Wyatt (7) and Dimitri (5) with Kunis, says that he is lucky to be alive.
Called by the President
– The moment you start looking at the obstacles in life as if they are meant for you, to give you what you need, that’s when life starts to be fun, right? You start surfing on top of your problems instead of living under them.
The presenter is clearly moved by Kutcher’s story and praises him for his willingness to stand up.
