Yoko Ono in Hospital In New York With ‘Serious Flu,’ Not a Stroke, Says Rep

Yoko Ono was taken to the hospital Friday night with "flu symptoms," according to a statement from her rep.

The 83-year-old artist and musician was reportedly taken from the Dakota, where she has lived since the '70s, to a nearby hospital, though spokesman Elliot Mintz denied reports that Ono had suffered a stroke.

"Earlier this evening, Yoko was experiencing 'flu symptoms' and called her doctor, who suggested she go to a local hospital and get a check-up," Mintz told ET in a statement. "She did, and it was determined she was dehydrated and had the flu. She is doing fine and will probably be home tomorrow."

Ono is a mother of two. She has a daughter, Kyoko Cox, from her marriage to producer Anthony Cox, and a son, Sean Ono Lennon, from her marriage to the Beatles star.

Sean Ono Lennon later tweeted an update on his mother's condition, writing, "Hey guys it was only rumors from press: was NOT a stroke, just dehydration/tired. She is FINE. Thank you everyone for your concern."
