Grammy-Award winning singer Tori Kelly is reportedly in the hospital being treated for blood clots after collapsing at a recent dinner. TMZ reported that the 30-year-old singer fainted after her heartbeat quickened while out with friends in downtown Los Angeles. Sources told the outlet she was “out for a while.”
The outlet also reported that Kelly’s friends took her to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for treatment, and doctors found blood clots around her legs and lungs. Sources told TMZ that Kelly’s condition is severe as Kelly has reportedly been “in and out of consciousness.”
Most recently, Kelly released her first new solo single in nearly three years, “Missin u.” The singer-songwriter chatted with PEOPLE in March to discuss the song and when fans could expect to see her on tour. She said, “I miss touring so much. I was actually on a world tour right as Covid was happening, and it was heartbreaking to have to cancel that. Since then, I haven’t been able to tour.” Kelly said of touring, “That’s one of the most exciting things I’m looking forward to. I can’t give any details or anything yet, but I cannot wait just to see fans again and belt out these songs with them.”
After first gaining attention as a child on multiple TV competition series, Kelly broke into the industry with soulful acoustic covers on YouTube and a run on American Idol in 2010. She fell just short of reaching Idol’s Top 24, but she soon launched a successful pop career and released her debut album Unbreakable Smile in 2015. She scored hits with “Nobody Love” and “Should’ve Been Us” and won two Grammys in 2019.
