Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani<\/a> is no longer in the ICU but will remain in the hospital for \u201csome time\u201d as he recovers from pneumonia, his spokesperson said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mayor and his family appreciate the outpouring of love and prayers sent his way,\u201d spokesperson Ted Goodman said in a statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Goodman said earlier this week that Giuliani, 81, was hospitalized in critical but stable condition<\/a>. The former mayor was previously diagnosed with restrictive airway disease following 9\/11, Goodman said, a condition that can complicate a respiratory illness.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe virus quickly overwhelmed his body, requiring mechanical ventilation to maintain adequate oxygen and stabilize his condition,\u201d Goodman said.<\/p>\n

Giuliani told viewers Friday on his X show, \u201cAmerica\u2019s Mayor Live,\u201d that his \u201cvoice is a little under the weather, so I won\u2019t be able to speak as loudly as I usually do.\u201d He\u2019s seen coughing a few times on the streamed program.<\/p>\n

He also missed several April episodes of \u201cThe Rudy Giuliani Show\u201d on LindellTV, though the most recent episode aired last Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Giuliani, a longtime ally of President Donald Trump and his former personal attorney, has faced numerous legal and financial troubles following the 2020 presidential election.<\/p>\n

He has pleaded not guilty to state criminal charges<\/a> against him related to the election subversion scheme in Arizona. Prosecutors dropped a similar case against Giuliani and others in Georgia last year. The two former Georgia election workers, Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, also obtained<\/a> a $148 million defamation judgment against him for false allegations he made about them after the 2020 election.<\/p>\n

Giuliani was disbarred in both New York <\/a>and Washington, DC<\/a>, over his part in Trump\u2019s election interference efforts in 2020.<\/p>\n

Giuliani, who also spent four days in the hospital<\/a> battling the coronavirus in 2020, continues to receive support from Trump, who last June appointed <\/a>him to an advisory council inside the Department of Homeland Security.<\/p>\n
