We have another Golden Girl down! My favorite of the foursome is battling a few heart issues. Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche Devereaux, is being treated for acute cardiac illness. Despite being under the weather she is in good spirits.
She was due to attend ‘Golden: A Gala Tribute to Rue McClanahan’ in San Franciso on November 14th, but will not be able to attend. Her doctor has set strict orders for rest and some testing.
“My darlings, I’m just devastated that I am going to have to miss my own tribute at the Castro Theatre,” she said in a statement on Wednesday from her hospital room. “Unfortunately, my doctor has laid down the law, and I’m currently having some maintenance on the old ticker. Trust me, I’d much rather be in San Francisco having fun and being adored by all of you.”
Upon hearing the news that she was in the hospital, the gala organizer, Marc Huestis is contemplating on postponing the event.
All the Dames wish her quick and full recovery.
