The voice behind your favorite hits is fighting a devastating, secret battle that has left him utterly crushed and unrecognizable. At 70 years old, the rock icon has finally dropped a medical bombshell that explains why he can never play the music we love ever again.<\/p>\n<p>The nightmare began when decades of drumming literally destroyed his body from the inside out. Collins revealed that sitting at his drum kit for years compressed his spinal cord, leaving his vertebrae permanently damaged. The pain is so severe that he can no longer even hold a drumstick, forcing his 20-year-old son, Nic, to take his place on stage. Today, the once-energetic superstar is trapped, unable to walk easily without a cane or a wheelchair.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5fs12f5s1f5ws1f5ew1f5ewf-300x262.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"262\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5fs12f5s1f5ws1f5ew1f5ewf-300x262.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5fs12f5s1f5ws1f5ew1f5ewf-768x672.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5fs12f5s1f5ws1f5ew1f5ewf.jpg 839w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But it gets wilder\u2014because his physical agony was only the beginning of the nightmare. While fighting for his health, Collins was blindsided by a massive, toxic betrayal from his ex-wife, Orianne Cevey. After divorcing and shockingly getting back together, she allegedly led a double life, secretly marrying another man in Las Vegas under the guise of a &#8220;business trip.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The truth triggered an explosive, multi-million-dollar war that completely ruined the star&#8217;s peace. A furious Collins locked her out of his $40 million mansion, but the drama only escalated as she threatened him with embarrassing marital secrets. The bitter legal battle got so ugly that the music legend was ultimately forced to sell his beloved dream house, which is now scheduled to be completely demolished.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/45svd410v5s1f0vs51cvew1g4vs0v-300x164.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/45svd410v5s1f0vs51cvew1g4vs0v-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/45svd410v5s1f0vs51cvew1g4vs0v-768x421.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dailypost71.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/45svd410v5s1f0vs51cvew1g4vs0v.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now, with all-white hair and a broken heart, the music icon admits he is nearing the absolute end of his career.
