Bert Newton hospitalised ahead of quadruple bypass

TV legend Bert Newton has been hospitalised at Melbourne's Epworth Hospital ahead of a quadruple bypass operation.

TV legend Bert Newton has been hospitalised at Melbourne’s Epworth Hospital ahead of a quadruple bypass operation tomorrow.

Newton told the Herald Sun, “Obviously it’s not the sort of thing you would wish upon yourself, but I am philosophical.

“Because I’ve had some chest pains and I sort of fobbed them off and said you know, it’s indigestion or whatever… and I came in for a check up because I had some stents in my heart, and turns out it’s a little more serious then that.”

Newton has had two other health scares in the last 18 months.

Newton is said to be in good spirits, surrounded by family.
