Meg Ryan made her first public appearance in six months to support her friend Michael J. Fox at a screening of his documentary STILL: A Michael J. Fox Movie. Despite her absence from the limelight, Ryan looked happy, but some fans noticed her new appearance, sparking rumors of plastic surgery.
Many criticized her look online, but Ryan has previously addressed such comments, saying she doesn’t pay attention to negativity. At the screening, she posed for photos with Billy Murray and Elvis Costello, celebrating Fox’s big night.
Fox, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s at 29, has become a leading advocate for awareness and research. He reflected on his struggle, saying his condition was “getting tougher” but acknowledged, “You don’t die from Parkinson’s, you die with Parkinson’s.”
