The original Bachelorette star Trista Sutter faced a serious medical scare while on vacation with her family in Croatia.

Sutter had a seizure, and though she's now recovering, she wrote about just how frightening the experience was via a post on her Instagram:

Trista met her husband Ryan on the first season of The Bachelorette in 2003, and together they've defied typical Bachelor Nation odds and stayed together ever since. They're parents to son Max and daughter Blakesley.
