VETERAN CNN host Larry King.
U.S. media reported that former CNN ace Larry King, also known as Larry King, has been hospitalized for more than a week after contracting the COVID-19 virus.
CNN reported Saturday (January 2) that Kim has been diagnosed with the virus, according to a source close to his family.
Kim, 87, has been hospitalized at Cedas Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles for more than a week, the sources said. According to the source, King’s three sons have been unable to visit him because of the hospital agreement.
King, who has type 2 diabetes, has suffered from a variety of conditions over the years, including several heart attacks, and underwent heart-bridge surgery in 1987.
In 2017, King revealed that he had been diagnosed with lung cancer, but luckily the surgery was successful. In 2019, he also underwent surgery to treat angina.
King has hosted CNN’s Larry King Live for 25 years, interviewing presidential candidates, celebrities, athletes, movie stars and ordinary people. He announced his retirement from CNN in 2010 after recording more than 6,000 episodes.
In 2012, King hosted a new show, Larry King Now, which airs three times a week on Ora TV, a digital on-demand network that King co-founded with Carlos Slim, a Mexican telecommunications tycoon.
In 2020, King’s two adult children died within weeks. His son, Andy King, 65, died of a heart attack at the end of July, followed by his 52-year-old daughter, Chaia King, who died in August shortly after being diagnosed with lung cancer.
