National Lampoon’s Vacation star Chevy Chase was recently spotted in a wheelchair at the Philadelphia Museum of Art during the unveiling of Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky memorabilia shop last weekend. The Saturday Night Live veteran sported a red puffer jacket over a white shirt and denim jeans, complemented by a white cap and red-rimmed glasses.
The actor’s recent public appearance comes two years after he had a major health scare. Although the exact nature of his sickness then was undisclosed despite being hospitalized for five weeks, it was mentioned that it was related to heart problems. At the same time, it’s hard to ascertain if his recent appearance is that 2021 health scare is something he’s recovered from.
Chase’s latest appearance has sparked mixed reactions from fans, with most of them speculating in regards to his overall well-being.
Despite initial apprehension, the actor’s representatives addressed fans’ concerns in a recent interview, reassuring everyone that the comedian is currently in outstanding health.
In a conversation with DailyMail.com, spokespersons for the actor disclosed that Chase is currently in excellent health. “His health is amazing, and his tour, A Live Conversation With Chevy Chase, has been selling out across the country,” they announced to the news outlet.
The team further emphasized that the actor’s sighting in a wheelchair was nothing out of the ordinary. They explained that Chase simply required some dedicated time for rest. “He sometimes uses the chair due to all the airport travel — even at 80 years young,” the rep added. “He does not need rest. His tour is extensive during the holiday season.”
