Jean Smart, who stars in the TV show Hacks, said on social media that she is recovering from a successful heart procedure.
Production on Season 3 of the hit HBO Max/Universal TV show Hacks, which began right after Thanksgiving and picked back up in January after the holidays, has been put on hold while Smart gets better.
It should start up again on or around March 13. She wrote on Instagram –
“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.”
“I am fortunate to have excellent care and support from family and friends while I continue to recuperate. Please listen to your body and talk to your doctor – I’m very glad I did!”
Smart did not say what kind of heart operation she had. There has been no new information given. The streamer and studio said in a joint statement (as reported by Deadline) –
“We are so happy that our beloved Jean Smart’s heart procedure was successful and she’s on the mend. HBO Max and UTV send their well wishes.”
