A DISNEY legend has been rushed to hospital after suffering a stroke, leaving his nearest and dearest concerned.
The musician, known for films such as Aladdin and Beauty and The Beast, is currently under medical care following the scary incident.
Paebo Bryson is best known for songs such as Aladdin’s A Whole New World and the titular track for Beauty And The Beast, a duet with Celine Dion.
The family of Peabo, who is now 75, have shared that he suffered a stroke this week in a worrying ordeal.
In a statement shared with Variety, they said: “Two-time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and balladeer, Peabo Bryson — the voice behind the Oscar-winning Disney songs ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and ‘A Whole New World’ — has suffered a stroke and is currently under medical care.
“At this time, the family requests privacy as they navigate this deeply personal moment together.
“The thoughts, prayers and love of friends and fans are welcomed and deeply appreciated.”
Hailing from South Carolina, Peabo is married to singer Tanya Bryson (née Boniface) and a dad to eight-year-old son Kitt and older daughter Linda.
Peabo has had a lengthy music career with numerous accolades under his belt.
In 1992, his performance of Beauty and the Beast with Céline Dion won him a Grammy award in 1992.
A Whole New World, which he performed with Regina Belle, also bagged him the gong the following year.
Alongside his Disney hits, R&B star Peabo has a string of solo hits across the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s.
Songs If Ever You’re in My Arms Again, Can You Stop the Rain and Feel The Fire all hit the top end of the charts.
Back in 2019, he suffered a mild heart attack and was hospitalised.
At the time, his family assured doctors expecting Peabo to make a full recovery, with his health appearing in check up until this new scare.
