Richard Simmons Released From Hospital, Says He Was Dehydrated

“Thank you to everyone who has reached out with love and concern."

Fitness expert Richard Simmons was hospitalized for “bizarre" behavior on Friday, three months after close friends claimed he was being held hostage in his homes in the Hollywood Hills.

Simmons was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Friday night after someone at his home called 911. He was released on Saturday, telling reporters "I was dehydrated and needed some fluids and now I am feeling great!"

“I just kind of wanted to be a little bit of a loner for a while,” he told the Today show on March 14. “Right now I just sort of want to just take care of me."
