| US TV host recovers from surgery |
US television host Regis Philbin is recovering well from recent heart surgery, according to his co-presenter Kelly Ripa.
Ripa said Philbin, 75, had bypass surgery on Wednesday and is already "up and joking around with nurses".
The former Who Wants To Be A Millionaire host presents daytime show Live With Regis and Kelly. Philbin announced on Monday's show that he had to have surgery after he had shortness of breath and chest pains.
Ripa sent an emotional get well soon message to her colleague on Thursday's programme, saying: "I'm thrilled you're ok".
The pair have presented the show together since 2001. Ripa was previously best known for her 12-year stint playing Hayley Vaughan in ABC soap All My Children.
Philbin's television career spans over 40 years. His most recent primetime show was America's Got Talent in 2006. |
