Singer and reality TV star Ray J recently revealed that he almost died after being hospitalized for a severe case of pneumonia and heart-related complications.
A few days ago, the One Wish singer took to his Instagram account to update fans regarding his health and expressed gratitude for their immense support and prayers via video.
In the clip, the 45-year-old artist stated that his heart was so aggravated that it was only working for 25 percent and described the experience as frightening, writing, “Just almost died!! I’m alive because of your prayers and support!!.”

Several reports suggested that Ray J was immediately rushed to a Las Vegas hospital on January 6 after complaining of chest pain.
Later on, he was diagnosed with severe pneumonia, a condition he even suffered earlier in 2021.
Days later, Ray J appeared in an emotional Instagram Live session, where he shared his health updates and reflected on his life and family.
Furthermore, he opened up plans to attend follow-up medical appointments and focus on his recovery phase.
