Less than a week ago, the band announced they would postpone the North American leg of their upcoming tour so the 75-year-old Jagger could receive medical treatment.
Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones performs during a concert of their"No Filter" European tour at the Orange Velodrome stadium in Marseille, France, June 26, 2018. File photoLegendary Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger said Friday he is"on the mend" after reportedly undergoing heart valve replacement surgery in New York -- news that gave his legions of fans a fright.
The British rocker was resting in the hospital, according to Billboard, citing anonymous sources who said he must lay low for four to five days so he can heal. After the band announced the postponement of 17 shows in the US and Canada, Jagger had tweeted that he was"devastated" and would"be working very hard to be back on stage as soon as I can."Jagger -- who has eight children, five grandchildren and a great-granddaughter -- has maintained his energetic stage performances well into his 70s.
But today, the living legend is known for maintaining a meticulous diet and exercise program to stay in shape, reportedly training with the Norwegian physiotherapist Torje Eike, who counts Olympic athletes among his clients. Cardiac surgeon and US television host Mehmet Oz said on Twitter that patients who undergo such a heart valve procedure can normally go home within a day or two.
