Reports say Hollywood’s gem - Zsa Zsa Gabor - has been hospitalized in Southern California.
NY1 has more...
“Her husband says Gabor fell unconscious and was taken to UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles with a high fever and high blood pressure. The 94-year-old has been hospitalized with several serious ailments in the past year.”
Gabor’s longtime publicist John Blanchette told the Daily Mail the reason for this hospital visit.
“Blanchette said doctors have now reattached Gabor's feeding tube after it came out. Blood and other bodily fluids had been flowing out of the tube in the 94-year-old star's stomach.”
Blanchette reassures fans that:
“'She's a fighter... She grabbed his [husband Prince Frederic von Anhalt] hand and squeezed it. So she doesn't want to go yet. She wants to stay.'”
Most media outlets have headlined Zsa Zsa Gabor’s hospital visit as an ongoing process- because the star has been plagued with frequent ailments -- such has having a leg amputated.
On the Red Carpet reports...
“Gabor has been hospitalized repeatedly since she broke her hip falling from bed. The retired actress, who is partially paralyzed from a 2002 car accident and uses a wheelchair, broke her hip in July 2010 after falling out of her bed while reaching to answer her telephone as she was watching ‘Jeopardy!.’”
KTTV says that at least one of her hospital visits wasn’t because of an ailment-- more like a case of superstition.
“In March, she was rushed to UCLA Ronald Reagan after screen legend Elizabeth Taylor died and Gabor feared she would be next to go because of the ‘Rule of Three’ -- a superstition that asserts celebrities die in sets of three.”
Gabor’s husband Prince Frederic von Anhalt, who is currently running for mayor of Los Angeles was quoted saying "She's a big fighter ... I always feel optimistic, because I know her."
