Singer Bonnie Tyler 'Stable' but 'Seriously Ill' as New Health Update Shared

Her spokesman said doctors placed the 74-year-old singer in an induced coma after emergency intestinal surgery, and they expect a full recovery.

  • Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, 74, remains "seriously ill but stable" in a Faro, Portugal hospital following emergency intestinal surgery, with doctors expressing optimism about her recovery as of Tuesday.
  • Tyler initially felt unwell during a London concert before traveling to the Algarve, where severe abdominal pain prompted an urgent transfer to Faro for emergency surgery to treat a burst appendix.
  • Family representatives issued a statement Tuesday distancing the singer from associate Liberto Mealha and denouncing "lurid and untrue rumours," requesting "privacy and decency at this difficult time."
  • Husband Robert Sullivan, a property developer she married in 1973, is supporting Tyler at her bedside and expressed gratitude to Faro medical staff for the life-saving intervention.
  • Tyler is scheduled to tour Europe later this year to mark 50 years since her 1976 breakthrough hit "Lost In France," with performances planned for Malta and Germany this month.
