“American Idol” alum Tori Kelly provided an update regarding the health scare she suffered this past Sunday (July 23), which sent her to the ICU at a Los Angeles hospital.
According to reports, Kelly was out with friends on Sunday night when she suddenly collapsed. Doctors at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center discovered that the Christian singer had blood clots throughout her body and near vital organs.
Kelly’s husband, André Murillo, said via an Instagram post on Wednesday that “Tori is smiling again and feeling stronger,” but shared that she wasn’t fully out of the woods just yet. “Just waiting on a few more answers,” he said, thanking everyone for their love and kindness towards his wife.
On Thursday morning, Kelly provided an additional update alongside a reference to Deuteronomy 31:8.
