Phil Collins has revealed that he nearly died in 2024 while battling alcohol addiction. The musician said his health deteriorated so severely that his kidneys and other organs began to fail, and people around him came to say their final goodbyes. He described himself as being "very lucky" to have survived. In a separate interview last year with MOJO magazine, Collins said he had been "very sick," and he has now offered more details about that illness, specifically his struggle with alcohol. Collins, a Grammy winner, has been open about his medical problems in recent years, previously disclosing that he suffers from Type 2 diabetes and related complications. His latest remarks shed further light on the severity of his condition, which he said left him close to death just months ago. The revelations have drawn attention to his long-running health battles, which have affected his ability to perform in recent years. Collins has not commented further on his current condition, but his account highlights the serious toll his alcohol use took on his body.
