“At this time, Willie is surrounded by family and receiving the best possible care. We ask for privacy and continued prayers,” the statement read.

Although details remain limited, sources close to the family say the singer-songwriter was taken to a nearby medical facility late last night after experiencing what was initially believed to be mild fatigue.
