Bonnie Tyler ‘seriously ill’ but stable in hospital following emergency surgery

Bonnie Tyler, the iconic Welsh singer famous for “Total Eclipse Of The Heart”, remains in a serious but stable condition following emergency intestinal surgery last week, her spokesman has confirmed. The 74-year-old was placed in an induced coma to aid her recovery after being rushed to a hospital near her home in Faro, Portugal.

On Tuesday, a representative for the Grammy-nominated star stated: “As of this morning, Bonnie remains seriously ill but stable in hospital in Faro, however her doctors are still positive that she will make a full recovery.” The family has also expressed distress over “lurid and untrue rumours” circulating, appealing for “privacy and decency at this difficult time”.
