‘The Boys’ Star Erin Moriarty Thought She Was “Dying” While Filming Final Season Amid Graves Disease Symptoms: “Physical Hell”
With Starlight getting her happy ever after in The Boys finale, Erin Moriarty is opening up about the realities of being mortal.
The actress, who shared her Graves’ disease diagnosis last year while filming the fifth and final season of the Prime Video series, detailed the “physical hell of chronic illness” she faced while filming the Eric Kripke-created show’s conclusion.
“Eventually, my doctors referred me to a neurologist,” she wrote in an op-ed for Time, recalling her search for a diagnosis. “By that point, I was preparing myself for the possibility that I was dying. I was in so much discomfort that the idea of death felt like a potential relief. Death felt less terrifying than living in that state indefinitely.”
