Well, here is some more awful news for this Hollywood family. On Wednesday, Dec. 28, TMZ reported that Debbie Reynolds was hospitalized for a stroke. The 84-year-old icon was reportedly at her son Todd Fisher's home in Beverly Hills when some type of medical emergency occurred. Sources allegedly told TMZ that Reynolds has been extremely upset (and rightfully so) since her daughter, Carrie Fisher, died on Tuesday. Family sources also allegedly told TMZ that 911 was called after Reynolds suffered a reported stroke. Bustle has reached out to her representatives for comment, but have yet to receive a response. At this time, everything remains unclear, but Bustle will be providing updates on Reynolds' condition as they are released.
Ever since Tuesday, the actor has surely been going through a heartbreaking time. After Fisher's death, she shared a statement on Facebook reading,
"Thank you to everyone who has embraced the gifts and talents of my beloved and amazing daughter. I am grateful for your thoughts and prayers that are now guiding her to her next stop. Love Carries Mother."
