Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani is currently in a Florida hospital in “critical but stable condition,” per reporting from The New York Times.
It’s unclear what ailment led Giuliani to the hospital, nor when he was transported.
His spokesman, Ted Goodman, said in an online statement: “Mayor Rudy Giuliani is currently in the hospital, where he remains in critical but stable condition. Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he’s fighting with that same level of strength as we speak. We do ask that you join us in prayer for America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani.”
Last year, The Masked Singer contestant was involved in a car accident, for which he was also hospitalized. Though he sustained serious injuries in the New Hampshire crash, his security spokesperson noted at the time he was “in good spirits and recovering tremendously.”
The accident occurred while Giuliani’s vehicle was struck from the back at high speed while traveling on the highway. “He was transported to a nearby trauma center, where he was diagnosed with a fractured thoracic vertebrae, multiple lacerations and contusions, as well as injuries to his left arm and lower leg,” the statement read.
Last September, during a 9/11 memorial tribute, Giuliani was seen in a wheelchair.
The former advisor and personal lawyer to president Donald Trump has kept a relatively low profile over the years, facing both legal and financial issues. In 2024, he was disbarred in New York following a state appeals court ruling that he repeatedly made false statements about Trump’s 2020 election loss.
In a Truth Social post, Trump took the opportunity to further spread debunked stolen election claims, “Our fabulous Rudy Giuliani, a True Warrior, and the Best Mayor in the History of New York City, BY FAR, has been hospitalized, and is in critical condition. What a tragedy that he was treated so badly by the Radical Left Lunatics, Democrats ALL — AND HE WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING! They cheated on the Elections, fabricated hundreds of stories, did anything possible to destroy our Nation, and now, look at Rudy. So sad!”
Aside from The Masked Singer, Giuliani has appeared as himself in Anger Management, Law & Order, Cosby and Seinfeld. His life was depicted in a 2003 TV movie for USA Network starring James Woods, which was panned by critics and audiences.
