Naomi is sharing an emotional story about her father’s recent health scare — and how Stephanie McMahon stepped in to help during one of the most frightening moments of her life.

During her appearance on What’s Your Story with Stephanie McMahon, Stephanie mentioned that Naomi’s dad had recently gone through a troubling time, to which Naomi revealed he’s now doing well after suffering a serious heart issue. Naomi said she doesn’t usually like to reach out to people she works with for personal matters, but this situation was different.

“Yeah, I’ll talk about it. He’s good now, so that’s a blessing. Thank you so much for that situation. I remember, just even for me to have to call anybody that I work with—I don’t like to. Let alone you. But that’s just how serious it was and how afraid I was with the heart scare he had. I remember talking to John about it and I was like, ‘What do you think I should do?’”

Jimmy Uso recalled the incident and admitted he felt they should reach out to Stephanie for guidance.

“I remember going through that situation and was thinking, man, maybe we should ask Stephanie.”

Naomi said she was glad they followed through, as it connected them with Dr. Donahue, who played a key role in helping her father get back on track.

“I’m glad I did too, because that was the information we needed. We got in contact with Dr. Donahue, and he was amazing. Dad’s back on track, but that could have gone so much downhill. But we’re good—he’s taking better care of himself. Me and my dad are very close. I don’t know what I would do if something was to happen to him, especially if I felt like I could have done something to help and provide for him.”

Thankfully, Naomi’s father has made a strong recovery and even performed her entrance theme live at SummerSlam this month, making the moment even more special for the WWE star.

It’s clear that Naomi’s love for her father runs deep, and her willingness to open up about this personal ordeal shows just how much he means to her.
