Chuck Norris has been hospitalised in Hawaii following a reported medical emergency, according to sources with direct knowledge of the situation.
The 86-year-old actor and martial artist was taken to a hospital on the island of Kauai within the last 24 hours, although the exact nature of the emergency has not been disclosed. Sources say Norris remains in good spirits despite the incident.
The situation appears to have developed suddenly. Norris was reportedly training on the island just a day earlier and was described as upbeat and joking during a phone call with a friend.
The health scare comes shortly after he celebrated his 86th birthday on March 10, sharing a video of himself sparring with a trainer on social media.
“I don’t age. I level up,” he wrote. “I’m 86 today! Nothing like some playful action on a sunny day to make you feel young. I’m grateful for another year, good health and the chance to keep doing what I love. Thank you all for being the best fans in the world. Your support through the years has meant more to me than you’ll ever know.”
Norris, born Carlos Ray Norris, is widely known for his career in martial arts and film, including his role as Cordell Walker in the long-running television series Walker, Texas Ranger. He also starred alongside Bruce Lee in the 1972 film The Way of the Dragon.
There has been no official statement from his representatives regarding his condition.
