Back in late April, Larry King had heart issues and was hospitalized after receiving a scheduled angioplasty. Since then he has not hosted his OraTV talk show Larry King Now.
However on September 28th, five months after his hospitalization, he secretly went back to taping new episodes of his talk show. The 85-year-old returned to interviewing by chatting it up with fellow heart attack survivor Kevin Smith. Yet, the host did not mention anything about his heart, at all, in that episode. In fact, he made no mention that it was his first episode back since his heart scare and divorce filing.
Even though he is back, he still has guest hosts, like Dennis Miller and Tom Green, filling in for him. Since his return, Miller has continued to host some of the shows, but King did sit down with Superstore’s Nico Santos.
I reached out to his reps to confirm his return and if he is back full time. As of now, I have not heard back from anyone.
