Joost van der Westhuizen in Hospital
News24.com are reporting that Joost van der Westhuizen has been hospitalised in Johannesburg.
He apparently had a heart attack.
His publicist confirmed the hospitalisation only.
It should come as no surprise as Joost was put under scrutiny by the media, especially Rapport and heat magazines for a sex tape depicting someone who strongly resembles Joost.
After the sex tape was made public, Joost was taken off the air as a rugby commentator at Supersport.
Still the media would not leave him alone, reporting on his legal bills and financial troubles.
Even his wife Amor Vittone looked to cash in on the publicity by appearing on the cover of Marie Claire’s July issue and giving an interview.
Amor though said she believed her husband was innocent of the claims of an affair and drug use.
All this must have put a huge burden on Joost.
Hopefully he will have a speedy recovery whatever his condition.
