Supernatural's Crowley Mark Sheppard has announced that he died four times yesterday after collapsing on his way to an appointment caused by a “100% blockage” in his left anterior descending artery (LAD).
The Doctor Who star took to Instagram Saturday night December 2 to announce the news.
“You're not going to believe this!” Sheppard said.
“[I] was on my way to an appointment yesterday when I collapsed in my kitchen,” he continued.
“Six massive heart attacks later, and being brought back from [the] dead 4 times – I apparently had a 100% blockage in my LAD,” he added.
The left anterior descending artery aka the the largest coronary artery runs anterior to the interventricular septum in the anterior interventricular groove, extending from the base of the heart to the apex (as per the NIH).
Sheppard continued to write: “The Widowmaker. If not for my wife, the Los Angeles Fire Department at Mullholland and the incredible staff at Providence California St Josephs,”
“I wouldn't be writing this. My chances of survival were virtually nil. I feel great. Humbled once more. Home tomorrow! #spnfamily,” he concluded.
As per Sheppard's statement, although he died 4 times yesterday – the star claims to feel great now and says he's heading home tomorrow Sunday, December 3rd.
Sheppard is known for having various roles in some of the largest entertainment franchises to date – such as The X Files, Supernatural, Doctor Who, and Doom Patrol, among others.
Although the star has memorable roles all around, his most beloved role to date is as the fan-favourite demon Crowley on the hit Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki-led show Supernatural.
Despite the show ending a few years back, the star still attends regular events such as stage Q&As, panels, fan meets, and more for the loving fans that he's acquired throughout his impressive career.
