Christina Applegate Gilbert Flores/Variety Christina Applegate has broken her silence following reports that she was recently hospitalized amid her ongoing battle with multiple sclerosis.
“Thank you for the outpouring of love and well wishes,” the actress captioned her Instagram post on Monday. “Health issues are a constant for me, but I’m a strong chick and I’m getting stronger and better every day. I’m taking a moment to focus on my health, but I’ll be back with more to say soon enough.” The post was a photo of her memoir, You With the Sad Eyes, and a mug bearing the words “Kissy Kissy.”
Applegate’s health update came after TMZ reported that the actress was hospitalized in Los Angeles on April 16. At the time, Applegate’s rep declined to confirm to Rolling Stone whether or not the actress was seeking medical treatment, but said: “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.”
