A member of The Price is Right family was involved in a scary ordeal recently. According to TMZ, longtime announcer George Gray, who is 53 years old, suffered three massive heart attacks. His situationl reportedly began on Monday, when he woke up with chest pains. After his wife, Brittney Green, called 911, Gray was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance, which is where he experienced his first heart attack.
Once Gray arrived at the hospital, he was put into surgery. Doctors reportedly put a stent in one of his arteries, but it failed. They also put a second stint in, which also failed. Gray later suffered another heart attack as he was walking around the hospital, which caused him to go into surgery yet again. While in surgery to put a third stint in his artery, he suffered another heart attack. Following his third heart attack, surgeons performed a quadruple bypass on Gray and he was later taken to the Intensive Care Unit, where he was listed as being in critical condition.

Gray went on to note that being stuck inside during the coronavirus crisis has been a blessing in disguise in regards to his medical emergency. He explained that he and his wife were planning to celebrate their anniversary in Thailand this month. But, due to the global health pandemic, the trip was canceled.

The event, which featured memorabilia from the CBS series, was attended by Gray’s friend, Price is Right host Drew Carey.
“I’m just absolutely crazy in love with her, and it just is very natural,” Gray said about getting married to Green. “For me, I never felt the need to get married โฆ and so, that’s why I know it’s right. It’s not something I needed to do โ it’s something I really want to do
