Former James Bond star Roger Moore suffering from diabetes

Hollywood actor Roger Moore, who played British secret agent James Bond in seven films between 1973 and 1985, has been diagnosed with diabetes and the news has been revealed by the actor himself.

The 86-year-old actor was taken to an emergency doctor in Monaco by his wife Kristina Tholstrup as he has been losing weight and collapsing more than often these days. Recently another Hollywood star Tom Hanks disclosed that he is also suffering from diabetes. Referring to Hanks’ disease Moore said, "I have got the dreaded Tom Hanks. Tom Hanks came out with the fact he has diabetes, and about four or five weeks ago I was falling asleep and just feeling terrible and dying of thirst and literally passing out.” He added, "My wife took me into emergency at Princess Grace Hospital in Monaco and I was straight on a slab... And I have diabetes. And I've obviously had it for quite a long time... During that week where I was falling asleep, my wife said I was losing a kilo a day. So, I have had to have all my trousers taken in.”
