Hilary Swank’s father is dead. The Oscar winner announced on Instagram. She received a lot of encouragement for her touching words.

Behind the American actress and two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank (47) lie months of mourning. Like the star from “Million Dollar Baby” communicated via Instagram, her father Stephen Michael passed away in October last year. Because of this “enormous personal loss”, she has avoided social networks for the past few months, she writes about a picture shared with her father.

You have had a “quite unique relationship with him,” writes Swank. “I was his sole carer after a lung transplant seven years ago.” During this time, her relationship with her father became even more intimate, saying that Swank “enjoyed every moment we had together”.

Important lesson for life

Not a day goes by when she doesn’t miss her father. In the meantime, however, she can also draw something positive from the loss: She has found her way back to the “most true form of life”. “It helped me forgive and leave behind things that were holding me back.”

In the comments section, Swank receives deep condolences for her loss and encouragement for her words. Including from celebrity colleagues such as Juliette Lewis (48) and “Breaking Bad” star Aaron Paul (42).
