The television host also posted a video that showed her being wheeled into surgery. Another photo, showed the star as she was hooked up to a machine.

In a thumbs up picture, O’Donnell wrote: “Grateful for amazing nurses, surgeons and whole team.” Her husband, restaurateur Geoff Tracy, took to Instagram to share an update on his wife’s wellbeing with the same images.

He wrote:

“Love of my life got a bit of spring break surgery yesterday. Laparoscopic appendectomy... truly amazing. She is doing great and tougher than ever. Much thanks to medical team at MUSC. They were awesome. By the way she played two hours of tennis with an appendicitis. [sic] Stronger than steel.”

O’Donnell has been open and honest about her health scares. In 2016, she revealed that she was diagnosed with skin cancer around Thanksgiving.

Luckily, the co-anchor was successfully treated and she shared that her melanoma diagnosis had made her extra vigilant about spending time in the sun. Norah Morahan O’Donnell was born on January 23, 1974.
