Gardo Versoza suffers from heart attack, currently in ICU

Gardo Versoza suffered from a heart attack, Boy Abunda confirmed on Thursday's episode of "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda."

According to the King of Talk, the actor began feeling unwell on Tuesday evening.

"Nag-umpisa po ito sabi ni Ivy Vicencio, ang kanyang asawa, nanakit ang likod ni Gardo, at noong una ay ayaw pa magpadala sa ospital dahil meron siyang taping kinabukasan," Boy said.

"Pero napilit din at dinala siya sa Cardinal Santos Medical Center (CSMC) kung saan nalaman ng mga doctor na dalawang ugat po sa puso ay barado," he added.

Gardo had to undergo an angioplasty and is currently in the intensive care unit of CSMC.

According to Boy, doctors said the cause of Gardo's heart attack might be because of his excessive physical activity.

Just last week, the veteran actor rode a bike from Pasig to Tarlac for more or less nine hours.

"Pinagsabihan na pala ito sa Gardo na hinay hinay sa physical activities dahil marami na nga ang nararamdaman sa katawan," the host said.

The actor seems to be on the mend, as he posted a photo on his Instagram showing him and his wife in the hospital room.

"Thanks for everything shugs [I] love you," he said. "Thank you LORD. Thank you doctors."

Get well soon, Gardo!
