The living legend in the film industry, Kirk Douglas most recently appeared on the Golden Globe Awards 2018.

The presence of an iconic celebrity in the event, with no doubts, was overwhelming to the audience but at the same time, his dismantled face left people stunned.

People are wondering, what must have happened to Kirk Douglas’ face?

On January 28, 2016, the 101-year-old actor had suffered a massive stroke.

The aftermath of the stroke robbed his verbal ability along with his power to move.

However, the veteran actor soon began an intense speech therapy to make partial recoveries.

His dangled face might partly be the consequence of the stroke, while his old age also has a lot to do with it.

As his health issues have limited his career in the industry, Kirk and his wife intend to donate their fortune to charity after their demise.
