The hospitalized London-born actress Elizabeth Taylor is in good spirits and has not had a stroke, heart attack, or heart surgery, her representative told Reuters on Thursday.
Taylor, who turns 79 on Feb. 27, will stay in the hospital for now. The two-time Oscar winner was admitted to the Cedars–Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles earlier this month with symptoms of heart failure.
“Elizabeth Taylor’s doctors continue to be encouraged by her progress,” her representative, Jamie Cadwell, said in a statement quoted by KABC-TV’s blog, OnTheRedCarpet.com. “She is in good spirits and continues to feel stronger every day.”
Taylor, who was diagnosed with congestive heart failure a few years ago, underwent heart surgery in 2009.
The silver screen legend is best known for her roles in movies including Butterfield 8 (1960), Cleopatra (1963), and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966).
