Former President Bill Clinton, 78, was hospitalized Monday and is undergoing testing after developing a fever.
Angel Urena revealed that the former president, Bill Clinton, was admitted to Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington, D.C. However, Urena reassured the public that Clinton is ‘fine.’
‘He remains in good spirits and deeply appreciates the excellent care he is receiving.’Â
Urena added that the former president hopes to be home and out of the hospital in time for Christmas. Â
He said that Clinton was receiving care as a precaution after developing a fever.  Â
It is ‘not an emergency situation,’ according to reports.Â
Clinton’s health has been in the spotlight in recent years as the once-vibrant Democrat has noticeably aged.Â
In 2021, he was also hospitalized after a urological infection spread to his bloodstream.
He also underwent quadruple bypass heart surgery in 2004 and had a procedure to open an artery six years later.Â
He’s been in the spotlight in recent months as he promotes his new memoir ‘Citizen’ and hit the campaign trail for Kamala Harris.

During his time at the hospital, Clinton expressed his frustration at being continually questioned about his involvement with the former intern, Monica Lewinsky. He also acknowledged that he had never directly apologized to her.
Clinton impeached by the House of Representatives when it emerged in 1998 that he had lied about a sexual relationship with the then 22-year-old.
He writes about a 2018 interview on NBC’s ‘Today Show’ when he admits he was ‘caught off guard’ by questions on the subject.Â
In addition, earlier this month Clinton said he was willing to talk to President Joe Biden about a presumptive pardon for wife Hillary Clinton in case President-elect Donald Trump would try to lock her up.
Trump railed against Clinton in their 2016 campaign and his nominee to lead the FBI, Kash Patel, has said he thinks the former secretary of state has potentially committed crimes.
‘Lock her up,’ was a common chant about Clinton from Trump supporters. The president-elect also vowed revenge against those he calls his political enemies.
Clinton, during an appearance on ABC’s The View, called any potential targeting of his wife a ‘fool’s errand.’
‘If Kash Patel is determined to make one up, he could do it, but I think if President Biden wanted to talk to me about that, I will talk to him about it,’ the former president said.
However, he then added he may not be the best person to talk about pardons. During his presidency Clinton caused a huge controversy when he pardoned billionaire Marc Rich, who had been a fugitive for decades for fraud related to making illegal oil deals and not paying more than $48 million in taxes.

‘I don’t think I should be giving public advice on the pardon power. I think it’s too — it’s a very personal thing, but it is — I hope [Trump] won’t do that,’ Clinton said.
‘Trump, you know, most of us get out of this world ahead of where we’d get if all we got was simple justice. And so it’s normally a fool’s ear and to spend a lot of time trying to get even,’ Bill Clinton added.
Patel has listed of dozens of people he viewed as ‘deep state’ enemies, including current National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, current FBI Director Cristopher Wray, former FBI Director James Comey, Comey’s former deputy Andy McCabe, ex-FBI agent Peter Strzok and former FBI attorney Lisa Page.
