“Ms. Taylor is fine. The rumors which began in England about her health are dramatic, overstated and untrue. Her hospital visit was precautionary. She will be returning home shortly. At present, she is surrounded by family, friends and fabulous jewels.”

According to a previous report in the National Enquirer, Taylor had suffered congestive heart failure stemming from a bout with pneumonia and had been put on life support.

“The doctors thought they were going to lose her. She’s still very sick, but she’s past the crisis,” a source reportedly told The Enquirer.
