René Froger taken to hospital after reaction to new medication

René Froger was taken to hospital on Tuesday after reacting badly to new medication, his wife Natasja said. The 65-year-old singer missed a press event for the new series of *De Frogers* as a result.

Speaking to Shownieuws, Natasja said Froger had received an infusion over the weekend. She said a doctor called on Tuesday morning and asked to see him after his reaction to the medication. Froger had initially wanted to cancel the appointment to attend the press event, she said, but she insisted he put his health first.

Froger announced in September that he had an autoimmune disease and needed to rest. He has said his health can vary from day to day; he previously spoke about the condition’s effect on his ability to perform.
