Valerie Harper is recovering after
she was hospitalized for an illness on Wednesday. The veteran actress took to her Facebook page Saturday to clarify that, contrary to reports, she is not in a coma and suggested her hospitalization was caused by medication that "didn't agree" with her:
The 75-year-old, who
has battled cancer, was starring in the musical "Nice Work If You Can Get It" at the Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine. The theater said Brenda Vaccaro will take over for Harper for the remainder of the play in a statement
released Saturday.
“Valerie is feeling great right now and we want her to continue to rest and to enjoy her family. After discussing with them, we decided that we wanted to relieve her of any pressure of having to return to the show, which only runs for two more weeks," the statement read.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
