Why Was Kurupt In The Hospital?
The exact details of Kurupt's latest health issues remain unclear. It isn't the first time he's had an emergency hospital stay in recent years, however. Back in 2019, he was rushed to the hospital after relapsing on alcohol while filming an episode of Marriage Boot Camp.
Two years year, Kurupt opened up to Revolt about his journey towards sobriety. “It’s about the change in my life… I’ve given up liquor; I don’t drink anymore… I’m an alcoholic and I’m working through it," he said at the time.
