Celebrity mom Danica Sotto recently updated her fans on her health after undergoing a successful gallbladder surgery.
In an Instagram story, Sotto shared a photo of herself in a hospital bed, giving a thumbs up with the caption, “2 days ago post-op. Goodbye gallbladder. Thank you, Lord, for a smooth and successful procedure. All is well.”
According to the Mayo Clinic, the most common type of gallbladder surgery is a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This procedure involves inserting a tiny video camera and special tools through small incisions to remove the gallbladder.
Earlier this year, in March, Sotto and her husband, basketball player Marc Pingris, were embroiled in controversies after cheating allegations involving Pingris and actress Kim Rodriguez surfaced online. Pingris denied the rumors, stating, “There is no truth to the rumors about Ms. Kim Rodriguez and me. We ask for respect to avoid involving our children.”
Despite being the daughter of veteran TV host-actor Vic Sotto and actress Dina Bonnevie, Danica chose to focus on family life with her husband and their three children, rather than pursuing an acting career.
In 2022, Danica and Pingris revealed that their daughter Caela had successfully recovered from dengue after a concerning hospitalization. Sotto expressed her gratitude on social media, thanking medical staff and supporters for their prayers.
