Brigitte Bardot, 91, says a “miracle” saved her from multiple suicide attempts.

Brigitte Bardot thinks it’s a “miracle” that she didn’t die after several suicide attempts.

The former sex symbol, 91, opens up about her mental health in a newly released documentary called “Bardot.”

In the documentary, per The Sunday Times, Bardot shares that she has struggled with depression throughout her life, including at the height of her global fame, and tried to end her life by suicide.

“I was taking my own life, and I was saved by a miracle,” Bardot says in the documentary, though she did not elaborate on what precisely that miracle was.

The “And God Created Woman” star further reveals that depression is something she still deals with.

“Every morning I wake up, and I am sad,” she says.

However, Bardot has always found comfort in animals and in animal rights activism.

“I don’t care if people remember me. What I would really like is for people to remember the respect we owe to animals,” Bardot states in the documentary. “The more I advance in my life, the more I fear humans. I’m more animal than human.”

The documentary comes a few weeks after Bardot was reportedly hospitalized with a mystery illness and underwent surgery.

The “Contempt” star was previously rushed to the hospital in July 2023 over breathing issues.

Bardot was a huge international star in the 50s and 60s. However, she retired from the spotlight in 1973 shortly before her 40th birthday because she despised fame, which she described as a “nightmare.”

Since then, she has focused her energies on protecting and advocating for animals — but has also become a controversial figure for her extreme political views.

In 2019, she was fined for inciting racial hatred after describing the inhabitants of the French Indian Ocean island of Réunion as “degenerate savages.”

“The natives have kept their savage genes,” she wrote at the time in an open letter to the prefect of Réunion, claiming the islanders were mistreating animals.

She has also been convicted of making Islamophobic comments.
