Larry King Undergoes Angioplasty and Stent Insertion

On April 23, 2019, renowned broadcaster Larry King underwent a scheduled angioplasty, during which stents were inserted to address his heart condition. Initial reports erroneously suggested that King had suffered another heart attack and was experiencing heart failure; however, these claims were later retracted. Following the procedure, King made a successful return to his show, 'Politicking with Larry King,' on August 15, 2019. In a surprising revelation on November 27, King disclosed that he had suffered a stroke in March of the same year, which left him in a coma for several weeks. During this challenging period, he faced significant emotional turmoil, even contemplating suicide due to despair over his health condition. King's resilience and determination to return to his work have been an inspiration to many, showcasing his commitment to both his career and his audience despite the serious health challenges he faced.
