Supermodel Anok Yai has shared a health update during her secret battle with an illness "destroying my lungs".
Ms Yai, who was the second black model after Naomi Campbell to open a Prada show, underwent successful robotic lung surgery on Friday (19 December) to treat a congenital defect that was “overworking my heart”.
Congenital disorders are health conditions a person is born with, often caused by genetic issues or problems that occur during pregnancy.
Sharing videos from her hospital bed, the supermodel can be seen using a nebuliser and attempting to walk alongside a nurse.
