Let me tell you a story about Natalie Wood, one of Hollywood's most beloved icons. After her tumultuous romances with Robert Wagner and Warren Beatty, Natalie was in such deep despair that she reportedly attempted to take her own life using sleeping pills. This is a side of Natalie's life that many fans didn't know about until now.
For the very first time, Natalie's sister, Lana Wood, has decided to share the harrowing details of that tragic night with listeners of the gripping new podcast Fatal Voyage: The Mysterious Death of Natalie Wood. It’s a story that sheds light on the struggles Natalie faced behind the glamorous Hollywood facade.
In a world-exclusive interview, Lana revealed, “My mom called me suddenly and said, ‘Grab an outfit, grab something, and meet us at Cedars.’” Lana is referring to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where Natalie was admitted under a pseudonym. It was a desperate and frightening time for the family.

Lana’s Bombshell Revelation in Fatal Voyage
Lana's confession came as part of the fourth chapter of the 12-part audio documentary Fatal Voyage, which dives deep into Natalie's life, exploring both her personal struggles and her mysterious drowning death at the age of 43 in 1981.
