- Angel Locsin conquered her spine problems and defied death-defying stunts in ‘The General’s Daughter’
- The actress who refused to have a stunt double often gets some injuries while filming the said series
- Netizens expressed their amazement with the actress’s courage and dedication in doing the stunts
It seems that Angel Locsin cannot be stopped by her spine injury.
In late 2015, Angel revealed that she had a spine condition called “bulging disc injury.” This was also the reason why she decided to give up the role of Darna. She underwent a two-part surgical procedure to treat it.
Despite her condition, Angel has continued to take on stunts in her roles.
The actress stars as lieutenant Rhian Bonifacio in the ongoing ABS-CBN television series The General’s Daughter. With the action-packed nature of the show, Angel has suffered a few injuries like a black eye, scratches, and bruises. She also recently shared a photo on Instagram showing that her face bitten by a dog.
