Melissa Rivers Releases Statement on Mom Joan's Condition

Melissa Rivers is speaking out to update her mom Joan Rivers‘ fans on her condition after being hospitalized following complications from an outpatient procedure on Thursday (August 28) in New York City.

“I want to thank everyone for the overwhelming love and support for my mother. She is resting comfortably and is with our family. We ask that you continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers,” the 47-year-old television personality said in a statement.

There was a report earlier in the evening that Joan was placed in a medically induced coma and that she would be taken out of it in a few days, though this has not yet been confirmed.

We wish Joan and her family the best during this scary time!
