The date of her announcement coincides with American Heart Month, which kicked off on February 1. “February is American Heart Month – a time when the nation spotlights heart health, so it feels important to share with all of you that I am recovering from a recent successful heart procedure,” she posted on social media. “I am fortunate to have excellent care and support from family and friends while I continue to recuperate.
