However, the exact reason for her medical stay remains unknown, and the star’s representative would not disclose details.
“I have no comment whether she is in the hospital or what her medical treatments are,” her rep told TMZ.
“She’s had a long history of complicated medical conditions that she has been refreshingly open about, as evidenced in her memoir and on her podcast.”
However, the “Married… with Children,” and “Dead to Me” star, who was diagnosed with MS in 2021, frequently speaks openly about her health struggles.
She has publicly told fans her condition makes her prone to infection, requiring frequent visits to the emergency room, but it’s not yet clear if her current hospitalization is related to the disease.
“When I wake up, I often can’t get my arm to move far enough to grab the cup of water by my bed or my phone from its charger,” she wrote in her memoir, according to TMZ.
Applegate was notably absent from her “MeSsy” podcast, and her Instagram page has not been updated for two weeks. prompting co-host Jamie-Lynn Sigler to address the issue March 31.
Sigler told fans the show was on a brief hiatus as they both fulfill book tour commitments, though the timing now fuels questions about Applegate’s medical condition.
Applegate released a touching memoir, “You With The Sad Eyes,” March 6.
