Bryant Gumbel will be fine after that A medical scare that sent him rushing from his Manhattan apartment to the hospital Last week.
A source familiar with his emergency condition told Page Six: “He is not dying, and is expected to recover.”
The former “Today” show host, 77, experienced medical difficulties around 9 p.m. on October 20, TMZ reported.
Sources told the outlet that he was taken on a stretcher and remained in the hospital until Wednesday.
A family member also told the outlet that he was doing well.
It’s unclear if Gamble has returned home, but our source tells us he likely was released from the hospital on Thursday.
The family also did not reveal what prompted him to seek medical attention, and we were told that very few people knew. “They are being very tight-lipped about this,” the source said.
Gamble’s wife, Hillary, did not respond to our requests for comment.
Gamble was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2009, forcing him to undergo surgery to remove a tumor from his lung. He appeared on ‘Live With Regis and Kelly’ that same year, where he insisted there was “nothing to hide from”.
“They opened up my chest and took a malignant tumor and took part of my lung and took some other good stuff,” he said.
The four-time Emmy winner hosted the “Today” show for 15 years before leaving NBC’s flagship morning show for good in 1997. He hosted HBO’s “Real Sports With Bryant Gumbel” for 28 years before retiring in 2023.
