Luis Miguel, the esteemed Mexican singer, who recently awed fans with ten historic concerts in Buenos Aires, faced an unforeseen health scare in Santiago, the capital of Chile. Early Tuesday, as Santiago awoke to its routine, local media was abuzz with reports of “El Sol” being rushed to a hospital in the city’s eastern sector.
The singer’s unexpected hospitalization sent ripples of concern throughout both national and international entertainment circles. Only hours after the conclusion of his first Santiago performance, fans and the media were left wondering about the condition of this iconic performer. The cause of this emergency emerged as the day unfolded. It was reported that Luis Miguel had been grappling with the effects of a severe flu, an ailment that had plagued him since August 19.

How is Luis Miguel’s health?

Cecilia Gutiérrez, a prominent Chilean journalist, was among the first to share details about the singer’s condition. She recounted how the voice behind hits like “La Bikina” had to be immediately taken to the hospital due to the severity of his flu. Through her Instagram, Gutiérrez reassured countless fans about the singer’s health. “El Sol is fine, just in case. It’s a feverish state, but it doesn’t mean he’s canceling his concerts. It’s the temperature changes,” she posted, accompanied by a lighthearted smiley face emoji.
