As Perez Hilton might tell you, Zsa Zsa Gabor was the Kim Kardashian of her day — sexy and famous and crazy with stories. (She even had a famous younger sister, Eva.)
Now we’re watching Gabor, who recently turned 99, fighting a lung infection.
“Now that [her old breathing] tube is causing problems, doctors plan to have it surgaically removed which will hopefully deter further infections.” Hilton reported. It’s not clear what Gabor will replace the medical device with instead.”
Hilton also noted: “This isn’t the first time the icon has faced medical issues. Back in 2012, Zsa Zsa developed an infection through her feeding tube around Christmas. Not to mention the former Miss Hungary also suffered a stroke, broken hip, and amputated leg over the past ten years.”
Others are remembering her as well:
@CarlaChamorros @DailyMailCeleb I met Zsa Zsa Gabor several times when I was a kid. A very kind, patriotic woman. She always gave us candy?
