The United States is concerned about one of their beloved actresses. This Thursday, the media TMZ revealed that Christina Applegate was admitted to a hospital at the end of March. While the reason for her hospitalization remains unknown, the 54-year-old actress has been suffering from multiple sclerosis since 2021.
Her spokesperson did not provide further information on her health condition and told the Daily Mail: “I have no comment to make on her hospitalization or the medical treatment she is undergoing.” He also added that the actress “has been suffering from long-standing complex health issues, which she speaks about with refreshing candor, as evidenced by her memoirs and podcast.”
Christina Applegate: the actress was already “confined to her bed” in February
Last February, Christina Applegate had already worried her fans. In an interview with People, she explained that the disease was paralyzing her and forcing her to remain “confined to her bed.” Transparent about her health condition, the recent silence of the American star raises questions.
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system and manifests with motor, sensory, balance, or visual disturbances, which can ultimately lead to disability. In her autobiography “Toi et tes yeux tristes”, Christina Applegate describes this constant feeling of exhaustion, likening her condition to several days of insomnia.
The courage of Christina Applegate
Despite her condition, the 54-year-old actress continues to fight and has explained to People that she finds the strength to leave her room for her daughter Sadie to take her to school. “I want to take her; it’s what I prefer to do,” she explains, “it’s the only time we are alone together.”
A demanding but necessary routine: “I say to myself: ‘Accompany her downstairs safely and come back home to be able to lie down again.’ And that’s what I do.” Christina Applegate concludes: “My life is not all roses. People’s lives, sorry for not finding a better term, are sometimes really tough. So I try to be as honest and raw as possible.” Unfortunately, the year 2026 looks to be difficult for the actress, who also lost her father in 2025. Her frankness, her fight, her role as a mother… Christina Applegate continues to be an example of courage.
