Chalking up feeling faint to the tight dress, she told The Daily Mail (via PopEater), "The truth was, I made the wrong decision to wear a very tight dress, and had something rather like a Victorian swoon." Joan added, "We had been there for seven hours, and I started feeling dizzy. I tried to get some air, but I felt really faint. I wanted to leave in our limo, but Percy decided to call an ambulance. We went to the hospital, and they did all the tests before the doctors told me I was absolutely fine and released me."
