She took to X, formerly Twitter, to send a message to her fans, thanking them for the encouraging messages. He is on the mend following his hospitalization.
“Just a quick message to say yes my dad is in the hospital,” Paige said. “I’ve had a lot of messages of concern about it. He has been sick for a while. But what I will say is, he’s doing a lot better and getting healthier every single day. Appreciate all the messages. He's the strongest human I know, very lucky and grateful that he’s my Daddio.
“He's going to be okay, he’ll be there for a little while but again he’s doing incredible and making big progress [red heart emoji],” she continued.
Wishing all the best to Paige's dad as he recovers following his hospitalization.
