William Shatner, at 95, continues to inspire with his outlook on life. The veteran actor recently shared two guiding principles via social media: "Never waste a good cigar" and "Never trust anyone who says you should 'act your age.'" These pearls of wisdom were shared alongside celebratory birthday photos.
This update follows Shatner's revelation about recent surgery to repair his shoulder. The injury occurred last year during a horse riding accident. Shatner described the incident, explaining that his horse veered unexpectedly, leading to a fall that impacted his shoulder.
He detailed the shoulder operation, referring to it as a "new type of shoulder operation." Shatner also provided an update on his recovery, assuring fans it was a routine procedure and not a "shattered" shoulder as rumored.
In addition to these recent events, Shatner has also spoken about his long-term health condition, tinnitus. He has experienced ringing in his ears since the 1990s, stemming from a "Star Trek" episode. He actively participates in raising awareness for the condition.
