Terry Crews' Wife Rebecca King-Crews Reveals 10-Year Parkinson's Battle
Rebecca King-Crews, wife of actor Terry Crews, revealed on the Today show Monday that she has been living with Parkinson's disease since 2015. The couple kept her diagnosis private for over 10 years before going public.
Rebecca King-Crews, married to actor and former NFL player Terry Crews, announced Monday that she has been privately battling Parkinson's disease for more than a decade.
The couple appeared together on the Today show to share Rebecca's health journey. She was diagnosed in 2015 but chose to keep the news private until now.
Parkinson's disease affects the nervous system and causes tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with movement. It gets worse over time and has no cure.
Rebecca recently underwent a new FDA-approved treatment called focused ultrasound. This procedure helped reduce symptoms on one side of her body without requiring traditional brain surgery.
Terry Crews is known for his roles in Brooklyn Nine-Nine and hosting America's Got Talent. The couple has been married since 1990 and has five children together.
By sharing her story, Rebecca joins other celebrities like Michael J. Fox who have raised awareness about Parkinson's disease and shown that people can continue living full lives after diagnosis.
Parkinson's affects over 1 million Americans and their families. When celebrities share their health struggles, it helps reduce stigma and shows others they're not alone in facing serious medical conditions.
Rebecca may continue sharing updates about her treatment journey and Parkinson's advocacy efforts.
