According to her, there was big fuss as the staff were preparing the patient for the MRI scan:
“Everyone was massively panicked. Everyone was moved out of the waiting and consulting rooms.”
E! Online reported that the famous couple left the hospital at 4.30pm and returned to their hotel.
A source commented on what had happened with the musician:
“[Kanye is] fine and didn’t have a major health scare or seizure. He just suffered a migraine and went to the hospital simply as a precaution.”
