\u201cI\u2019m just gonna be here,\u201d she said of her hospital stay. \u201cBecause of this kidney infection, I have to have intravenous antibiotics right now. And that\u2019s where we\u2019re at.\u201d<\/p>\n

Doctors questioned if the actress, 53 \u2014 who announced she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis<\/a> in August 2021 \u2014 had acquired a urinary tract infection and if her wiping technique was the reason behind it.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike, what am I back-wiping? Like, seriously, I\u2019m 53,\u201d she said, joking that she has \u201cthe cleanest vagina \u2026 I\u2019m a clean girl down yonder.\u201d<\/p>\n
