AceShowbiz - Tori Spelling was reportedly put in quarantine after being rushed to Cedars-Sinai Hospital on Saturday, October 18 for having a severe cough attack. Sources told TMZ that the "Beverly Hills, 90210" alum was "running a fever, coughing uncontrollably, and having trouble breathing."
According to Mail Online, doctors fear Tori may have contracted Enterovirus D68. A source told the site, "Tori was not only admitted to the hospital, she was put under quarantine and neither Dean [McDermott] nor the children are allowed anywhere near her for fear she may have contracted the contagious non-polio Enterovirus."
The source continued, "She's had a cough and low grade fever for more than a week now, but refused to see a doctor. She's been filming her show, and she and Dean worked hard on a birthday bash last weekend for their daughter Hattie, so Tori wasn't about to call off the party because she didn't feel well."
"Tori has been feeling sick for at least a week," the source added, "She was coughing and complained of being short - winded. She had a fever, but when it skyrocketed past 101 this weekend, Dean insisted she go to the Emergency Room where doctors quickly admitted her."
The source claimed doctors "are currently running tests. And they hope to have a diagnosis as soon as possible. But in the meantime, they have Tori quarantined and are not letting anyone see her, especially her four children, who would be highly susceptible to the virus."
Because of her illness, Tori had to call off a promotional appearance for the season two of "True Tori". The new season of the docu-series will premiere on Lifetime on Tuesday, October 21 at 9:00 P.M.
