Brooke Shields shockingly revealed in an interview with Glamour that was published on November 1 that she suffered a grand mal seizure back in September.

Read on to learn more about Brooke and Bradley's relationship, how they first became friends, and how Bradley helped during the seizure incident…
Are Brooke Shields and Bradley Cooper friends?
While the two actors have never spoken about their friendship before, the newly revealed health scare definitely confirmed that away from the spotlight, they share a comfortable bond.

At that point, Brooke was already a well-established Hollywood star while Bradley was just beginning to make waves in the film industry after a five-year stint in the hit spy series Alias.
The Midnight Meat Train, based on a 1984 Clive Barker short story of the same name, received little promotion prior to its release. While it was positively reviewed, it received a limited release after it was delayed several times. However, it established a lasting and private friendship between its co-leads.

Brooke told the publication that after dining at L'Artusi in downtown NYC and waiting for an Uber, "two women come up to me; I don't know them. Everything starts to go black. Then my hands drop to my side and I go headfirst into the wall. I start having a grand mal seizure."

"His assistant called Bradley and said, 'Brooke's on the ground. Chris isn't around. Go get her.' And he came, and somebody called the ambulance. And then it was like, I walked in with Jesus."
© Getty ImagesShe remembered seeing the A Star is Born actor holding her hand in the ambulance. "You wake up and Bradley Cooper's going, 'I'm going to go to the hospital with you, Brooke,' and he's holding my hand. And I'm looking at my hand, I'm looking at Bradley Cooper's hand in my hand, and I'm like, 'This is odd and surreal.'"
