It's April 20th. I'm Corey with The Story, and this is Entertainment and celebrity news. Today, your AI-powered entertainment report. Christina Applegate just addressed rumors of a recent hospital stay in Los Angeles while battling multiple sclerosis. The actress, diagnosed back in 2021, posted on Instagram saying health issues are her constant reality, but she's pushing to get stronger. Every day, implants to share more soon. Earlier symptoms hit her heart during shoots for dead to me, like her legs buckling, leading to wheelchair use by the final season. Exhaustion hits like a non-stop bender, causing vomiting and emergency room trips as she detailed in her memoir. It's tough on her family, too, especially her 15-year-old daughter, Sadie, whom she still drops off at school despite being bedridden some days. Applegate admits it's breaking her kid's heart, watching mom struggle, and she's even bought her own burial plate to face mortality head-on. She's coping with dark humor, joking about her condition at award shows to avoid suffocating
under at all. Shout out to friend Selma Blair, diagnosed earlier, who pushed her to get tested, huge support there. Applegate's likely done with on-camera work, calling dead to me her strong exit, but her real talk keeps inspiring folks facing the same fight. She's isolating now to rebuild, staying that tough chick through at all.
