Queen’s Brian May Has ‘Stabilized’ After Stroke And Is Playing Instruments Again, His Wife Reveals

While speaking at the Television and Radio Industries Club’s (TRIC) Christmas Lunch in London on December 3, Brian May’s wife Anita Dobson shared how her husband is recovering from the “minor stroke” he suffered in September. “He’s much better now, he’s stabilized now, which is brilliant,” said the 75-year-old British actress. “I just hope we don’t have any more reoccurrences.” Dobson revealed that the 77-year-old Queen guitarist is now able to move his left arm, which he temporarily lost movement in following the stroke. Though Dobson says that May regaining movement in his left arm “was a bit of a challenge.” “He’s good to go now,” Dobson shared. “He’s playing the piano quite a lot in the house. I love it — the piano in the house is really, just very relaxing. And then he very slowly started to pick up an acoustic guitar and gradually just exercise the muscles. And it very quickly came back.” (People)
