Lea Michele Reveals Son, 2, Is Hospitalized Again: It’s Hard Not To ‘Break Down & Cry’
Ava Hall Lea Michele's toddler, Ever, was hospitalized about two weeks ago. She did not reveal why he needs medical care again, but said he 'is going to be ok'.
Lea Michele‘s 2-year-old son, Ever, is back in the hospital, the 36-year-old performer seemingly revealed on April 5. In an Instagram Story that showed her toddler curled up in a crib under a blue blanket, she wrote, “Today was a hard day. As parents, we have to be strong for our kids. But sometimes you just want to break down and cry (Hidden in the bathroom or closet is usually best. Today I chose hospital bathroom)”.

She continued, “These hard times show you truly what matters and is important in life and how much we have to be grateful for. It’s been hard, to say the least, but our boy is such a champ and is going to be ok. But it still hurts.” The Glee alum then took to her Instagram feed to share a throwback photo of herself hugging Ever during a sunny day at the beach. “My everything”, she captioned the post alongside a white heart emoji.

Ever’s hospitalization comes just two weeks after Lea announced she would be absent from the Wednesday, March 22 performance of Funny Girl on Broadway due to a “scary health issue” involving her baby boy. “I’m so sorry but unfortunately I will be out of @funnygirlbway today,” she wrote on her Instagram Story over a photo of her hand resting her son’s. “We are at the hospital with our son dealing with a scary health issue that I need to be here for.” She concluded her message by apologizing again and asking fans to send their best wishes their way. “I’m so sorry. Please send us some love and strength,” she wrote.
