It's been a tough year for actor Antonio Banderas.

According to The Associated PressTMZ and other outlets, the actor suffered a heart attack this year that left him with three stents in his arteries.

Banderas confessed the news on a Spanish media channel. He revealed the heart attack took place on Jan. 26 and he is now in better heath. The actor added, “It wasn’t serious, and hasn’t caused any damage.”

He reportedly underwent surgery at a Swiss clinic.

“It hasn’t been as dramatic as some have written," he said.
