Brigitte Bardot, 91, is resting at home in Saint-Tropez after successful minor surgery. The former movie star is known for her roles in the fifties and sixties and her dedication to animal welfare.
PARIS (Reuters) -Former French movie star Brigitte Bardot, 91, is recovering at home in Saint-Tropez, southern France, following minor surgery that went well, Bardot's office said in a statement to French news agency AFP on Friday.
The actress thanked staff and the surgical team at the Saint-Jean Private Hospital in Toulon and said she is now resting at home.
Bardot became world famous in the fifties and sixties for her free-spirited performances in movies such as "And God Created Woman". As a singer, she also released several records during that time.
She stopped acting in the seventies, permanently moved to the French Riviera town of Saint-Tropez, and dedicated herself to the animal welfare cause through a foundation in her name.
