Meat Loaf was ‘seriously ill’ with COVID days before his death: report
January 21, 2022
Rock legend Meat Loaf was “seriously ill” with COVID-19 just days before his death Thursday, according to a report.
Sources told TMZ that the 74-year-old star was due to attend a business dinner earlier this week for a show he is working on based on his classic hit, “I’d Do Anything for Love.”
But he canceled because he was seriously ill with COVID-19, with his condition soon becoming critical, the outlet’s sources said.
The singer and actor, real name Michael Lee Aday, had been outspoken about COVID, specifically railing against vaccine mandates, the outlet said.
In May, he posted a clip of Eric Clapton and Van Morrison’s anti-lockdown song, “Stand & Deliver,” writing, “Listen and Learn.”
It was not clear if he had been vaccinated. Reps for the star did not immediately return requests for comment early Friday.
He had reportedly canceled a business dinner earlier this week due to his illness.
“Our hearts are broken to announce that the incomparable Meat Loaf passed away tonight with his wife Deborah by his side,” the post said.
“Daughters Pearl and Amanda and close friends have been with him throughout the last 24 hours.”
