Former NBA Star’s Pregnant Wife Bitten By Shark In Puerto Rico: ‘Worst Day Of My Life’

Eleonora Boi, the wife of former NBA star Danilo Gallinari, revealed she survived a shark attack while pregnant. The Italy native, who is currently expecting her third child with the athlete, was bitten by a shark while swimming at a beach in Puerto Rico, where her husband currently plays. “It was the worst day of my life, maybe my grandmother Nella was right when she said ‘on the seas you traitors,'” she wrote in a translated Instagram post on Aug. 1 alongside a photo of herself wearing a hospital gown. “I never thought I could get attacked by a shark and I was near the shore and on a super crowded beach. Thankfully me and my baby are fine, I was rushed to the rescue and the surgery to fix my poor bruised leg, [it] went well,” she added. Eleonora’s post comes one day after the Department of Natural and Environmental Resources in Puerto Rico announced the incident to the public, although it didn’t disclose the identity of the woman at the time.
