Reports: Larry King hospitalized with coronavirus

• "Larry has fought so many health issues in the last few years and he is fighting this one hard too, he's a champ," a source close to the family told ABC News.

The big picture: King has won multiple awards over a career spanning 6o years, 25 of which he hosted CNN's "Larry King Live."

• King has previously had several heart attacks, undergoing quintuple bypass surgery in 1987. He announced in 2017 he had lung cancer, and he overcame a stroke that left him in a coma in 2019.
• In 2020, two of his adult children died weeks apart — his son Andy from a heart attack and daughter Chaia of lung cancer.
