Gary Busey's Son Is Hospitalized With 'Childhood Illness'

Gary Busey, the American actor and former 'Celebrity Apprentice' contestant, has seen his 1-year-old son taken to hospital in Los Angeles with a "childhood illness". Gary Busey's son Luke is being treated at Cedars Sinai hospital but is reportedly making good progress, according to Access Hollywood.

A representative for the 'Lethal Weapon' star confirmed that Luke was hospitalized earlier this week, saying, "Luke Busey, one year-old son of Steffanie Sampson and Gary Busey is being treated for a childhood illness at Cedars Sinai and is expected to be going home by the end of the week". The statement also noted that Busey is grateful to his fans for "their love and support". Luke is the actor's only child with his fiance Steffanie Sampson, but he also has a 39-year-old son with his ex-wife Judy Helkenberg as well as a daughter from a prior relationship.

Gary Busey became the latest star to get the boardroom axe on Donald Trump's 'Celebrity Apprentice' on Sunday night (17th April 2011). Upon leaving the show, the 66-year-old said, "I have great respect for Mr. Trump and I accept his choice with grace, kindness and understanding, and I departed in a very happy mood. The fact is my teammates did not like me".

Gary is a sweet man and I hope his baby is doing better. I'm tired of artistic people getting slammed. YES, duh, we ARE different. If your m,ind can't go "out there" chances are you aren't very creative. A classic artist is often very distracted by their own thoughts, they are lucky to see things in so many different colors and feel the higher possibilities. It is like being on a drug, a good one that won't hurt you-I cannot stand fat-ass Trump for insulting a sweet person like Gary. Trump needs a punch in the face. Do you think Picasso acted like a totally uncreative,uptight,conservative dork ? Hell no. He looked dazed a lot of the time. His mind was busy with inner visions. I feel sorry for the dull people who can't get people like Gary.
