Rick Harrison, known for the show “Pawn Stars,” is recovering after undergoing emergency bypass surgery, as confirmed by multiple reports. The 61-year-old initially went to the hospital for what was thought to be a simpler procedure, but doctors found he needed a bypass instead.
Harrison is currently recovering in the hospital with his wife, Agripina “Angie” Polushkin, and family by his side. A family spokesperson stated that he is expected to make a full recovery and expressed gratitude towards the hospital staff for their care.
“Pawn Stars,” which features Harrison and his family running their Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, first premiered in 2009 and has since aired for 23 seasons.
