Prince, who has been sick with the flu since at least last week, was rushed to a hospital Friday after his private plane made an emergency landing in Illinois. He returned home after treatment and was “fine,” a representative said.
Prince’s jet landed at Quad City International Airport in Moline, Illinois, around 1 a.m. local time, according to TMZ, which was first to report the news.
The 57-year-old entertainer, born Prince Rogers Nelson, performed two shows in Atlanta on Thursday night as part of his “Piano & A Microphone” tour. The concerts, originally scheduled for last week, were postponed due to the singer’s illness.
A representative for Prince told TMZ that the singer was still ailing during Thursday’s shows and began feeling worse during the plane ride. After the unplanned landing, he was treated at a hospital and was released three hours later
