Headline: Miriam Margoyles confirms she has undergone heart surgery
Caption: The 82-year-old actress confirmed on the Table Manners podcast with Jessie and Lennie Ware on Wednesday that she had an aortic valve replaced. "I've got a cow's heart now. Well, not the whole heart. I've had an aortic valve replaced by a cow's aortic valve.” When singer-songwriter Jessie asked if it was a common procedure, Miriam replied "I think it's rather refined, actually! I don't know how common it is. I'd never heard of that operation. But it saves you from having open heart surgery, which would be infinitely more invasive."
