Christina Applegate was reportedly discharged from the hospital nearly four months after she was admitted in late March.
The actress, who has been battling multiple sclerosis since 2021, is back home and doing well, an insider told TMZ Monday.
A rep for Applegate, 54, wasnât immediately available to Page Six for comment.
It remains unclear if the âDead to Meâ alum was hospitalized due to her autoimmune condition, which is a disease of the brain and spinal cord that âcan cause numbness, weakness, trouble walking [and] vision changes,â per Mayo Clinic.
At the time, her rep refused to confirm her medical treatments, telling Page Six in a statement, âSheâs had a long history of complicated medical conditions that she has been refreshingly open about.â
A few days later, Applegate addressed her health scare via Instagram, thanking fans for their âoutpouring of love and well wishes.â
âHealth issues are a constant for me, but Iâm a strong chick and Iâm getting stronger and better every day,â she wrote.
âIâm taking a moment to focus on my health, but Iâll be back with more to say soon enough.â
Applegateâs âMarried ⊠With Childrenâ co-star David Faustino, who portrayed her on-screen brother, gave an update on the actress amid her hospitalization in June.
âItâs been very hard for her, but she does keep her humor,â the actor told Us Weekly, referring to her MS battle as âa real blow.â
âShe gets through this with some humor, and thatâs kind of her way that she moves through it,â he continued. âI do a lot of visits with her. A lot of texting, a lot of checking in.â
Applegate portrayed Kelly while Faustino played the role of Bud Bundy in the long-standing TV show, which aired from 1987 to 1997.
The âBad Momsâ star has been open about his journey with MS, revealing on her âMeSsyâ podcast in August 2025 how she was hospitalized with âso much painâ and âscreamingâ due to a kidney infection.
Then, in February, Applegate revealed she was confined to her bed, though she still tried to be present for her and her husband Martyn LeNobleâs 15-year-old daughter, Sadie, taking her to school each day.
âI want to take her; itâs my favorite thing to do. Itâs the only time we have together by ourselves,â she told People. âI tell myself, âJust get her there safely and get home so you can get back into bed.â And thatâs what I do.â
Additionally, the âSweetest Thingâ star has revealed how difficult her MS battle has been on Sadie after the latter admitted to missing who Applegate was before her diagnosis.
