Memorial Day weekend wasn’t very relaxing for Jimmy Kimmel – on Monday, the late-night host revealed his son Billy had his third open-heart surgery over the break. Thankfully, all went well.
“We went into this experience with a lot of optimism and nearly as much fear and came out with a new valve inside a happy, healthy kid,” Kimmel posted on Instagram along with a photo of a smiling Billy.
The ABC host then went on to prais his son’s doctors by name, shouting out “the brilliant surgeon Vaughn Starnes,” cardiologist Tim Casarez and Dr. Paul Viviano.
