Cinderella’s Prince Trávníček after heart surgery: On Valentine’s Day, the news everyone was praying for came!

Actor and voice actor Pavel Trávníček (75), known to the public mainly as the iconic fairy-tale prince from Three Nuts for Cinderella, he passed one of life’s hardest tests. Some time ago, he underwent a 9-hour heart surgery in which doctors performed a quadruple bypass. After the operation, he was in an artificial sleep, from which the paramedics successfully woke him up.

However, his recovery was not quick and his wife Monika (40) gradually informed him about his condition. She also shared one great message on Valentine’s Day. “Friends, since you keep contacting me about how my husband is and how he is doing, I have great news for you. After more than a month, he is HOME, YAY! Once again, we thank all the doctors, the guardian angels of Homolce in the coronary department doc. Jaroslav Benedík and prof. Petra Neužil and also to the Poděbrady G-Rex spa to all those who dedicated to her husband, where he underwent subsequent rehabilitation after heart surgery. THANK YOU and THANK YOU to all of you who thought of him,” Monika Trávníčková said on Facebook.

She added one more thing. “With the question, when will he return to the planned actions again? He will definitely come back when possible, because he is very much looking forward to his fans here and in Germany. Happy Valentine’s Day and good health to everyone.” she let herself be heard.

Trávníček was in the hospital at the turn of the year for acute bronchitis. However, according to the doctors, it is this disease indirectly contributed to the discovery of serious heart problems that required immediate surgery. She wrote about how difficult it was on a social network Monika Travničková.

“The end of 2025 and the beginning of the new year 2026 was very difficult for us. The husband is born again and I would like to thank you very much for saving our eternal prince Mr. Doc. MUDr. to Jaroslav Benedík, Ph.D. and his entire team and of course also prof. MUDr. Petr Neužil, CSc., FESC,” she thanked after her husband’s surgery.
