Supermodel Anok Yai has been silently battling a congenital defect that she says is “overworking [her] heart and slowly destroying [her] lungs.”

The 28-year-old Victoria’s Secret runway model took to Instagram to reveal she’s been dealing with this “silent battle” for the last year and underwent surgery to manage it.

Alongside videos of her in a hospital bed, Yai shares, “What started as something asymptomatic for the majority of my life turned into a lingering cough, which turned to chest pains, bouts of coughing up blood, then at times struggling to breathe.”

The style icon also gets vulnerable about how she always thought she could outwork or outrun anything, but notes … “the universe has a way of slowing you down and waking you up.”

She then reveals she had a successful robotic lung surgery … and takes a moment to thank all her docs.

Bowen Yang bawled like a baby during his final “Saturday Night Live” sketch, hours after confirming he was moving on from the show.

Check out his touching final scene — he plays a Delta One Lounge employee working his last shift, an obvious parallel to his real-life situation. He gets a phone call from Ariana Grande, and they reminisce about all the “eggnog” he’s made over the years … another obvious parallel to the sketches he’s contributed to over this 7-year run on the show. He and Ariana then break out into song, dueting Charles Brown‘s 1960 song “Please Come Home for Christmas.”

His “Wicked” co-star then joins him right before he breaks down in tears, saying how much he loved working at the Delta One Lounge. He raves … “I just feel so lucky that I ever got to work here, and I just wanted to enjoy it for a little bit longer. Especially the people. I’ve loved every single person who works here, because they’ve done so much for me, especially my boss.”

His words echo those of the “goodbye” letter to ‘SNL’ he posted Saturday afternoon, in which he thanked all of his co-workers for their support over the years … plus his boss, ‘SNL’ creator Lorne Michaels.

In the touching scene, Cher plays his boss — the “CEO of Eggnog at Delta” — who offers some laughter amid the high emotion. Bowen asks her for some feedback, to which she replies … “Well, everyone thought you were a little bit too gay. But you know what? You’re perfect for me.”

The scene wraps with some more song as Bowen’s character continues crying, with Ariana and Cher both hugging him.

Bowen took his final bow at Studio 8H in the iconic 30 Rock building one day after we confirmed the news he’d be exiting the show. It’s unclear why he is departing mid-season.
