Wyclef Jean hospitalised due to stress
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 28 September 2010
A rep for Wyclef Jean has confirmed reports that the musician and would-be politician has been admitted to hospital due to “stress and fatigue”.
Marian Salzman told Associated Press: “[Jean is] suffering from stress and fatigue based on the gruelling eight weeks he’s had [and] plans to take it easy”.
Last week Jean officially withdrew from the Haitian presidential election, though it had been several weeks since it was decided that he was ineligible by the country’s electoral council. In a statement, he said: “After weeks of quiet but painstaking reflection with my wife and daughter, I have chosen to end my bid for the presidency of Haiti”.
He is due to be discharged from hospital later this week.
