Phil Collins has been hospitalized due to a bad fall, and here’s what we know
We hate it when things like this happen. Singer Phil Collins was hospitalized after falling in his hotel room during a tour. While the “Against All Odds” singer had to get stitches, he also chose to cancel a few of his tour dates in London. People reports that he’ll resume his shows this Sunday, and make up for the dates he’ll be missing this November.
According to a post on his official Facebook page, Collins had a bout of “drop foot,” which is when your forefoot drops due to weakness.
The condition, which he gained after having a back operation, caused him to fall while attempting to head to the bathroom.
Posted this morning, the update states that Collins will be observed for 24 hours before being released.
"Phil sends his sincere apologies and thanks to fans," the update read. "He has had a fantastic week at his first shows in 10 years, cannot thank people enough for their warm reaction and is excited to return."
Prior to the fall, Collins has been open about his health and surgeries with his fans.
The back surgery, which took place in 2015, ended up accidentally causing a few more problems for Collins as time went on.
"The back surgery I had was great – I mean, how good can surgery be? But it was problem-free. But then when I was recovering on crutches, I fell and fractured my foot. When I recovered from foot surgery, I fell again and fractured another part of the same foot. My right foot now is completely numb," Collins said to People.
He’s such a champ for choosing to tour, regardless of the difficulties. We really hope that Collins feels better soon!
