Elianis Garrido, an actor, dancer, and TV personality with more than 6 million Instagram followers, worried everyone watching the Colombian show “Lo Sé Todo” in March 2023, when she suddenly slumped to the floor.
Following the incident, María Fernanda Romero — another presenter on the state-owned Canal 1 show — revealed that the sudden climate changes had left her colleague feeling ill with a nasty cough in the days leading up to the dramatic on-air fainting. However, the first sign for viewers that something was wrong occurred when the 30-something used her hands to shield her face — soon after, she collapsed off of her chair and onto the floor.

Garrido subsequently received medical attention, with her shocked co-host, Ariel Osorio, informing audiences — and the star’s mother, in particular — that she’d been experiencing respiratory issues, adding (via the New York Post), “Everything is fine. Eli is perfect. … She will call you soon, we will tell you what is happening with Eli.” When Garrido, who thankfully made a full recovery, took to her Instagram Stories a few days later, she told her fans, “Thank you all for your messages.”
