“Willie is a fighter, but this is a very difficult time,” the statement reads. “We ask his fans around the world to lift him in prayer, and respect our family’s privacy as we focus on his comfort and healing.”
The announcement comes after weeks of speculation and concern, as Willie had canceled multiple appearances and public engagements. While those close to the family had previously insisted he was simply resting, today’s update confirms the situation is far more serious than fans were led to believe.
