Keller’s co-host Brendan “Jonesy” Jones attended the event with her in Sydney on Monday night spoke about the incident live on air this morning.
“We’re at the movie Unbroken last night, enjoying the movie,” Jonesy said on the pair’s top-rating WSFM radio show Jonesy and Amanda this morning.
“Next thing she’s in the hospital getting tests, which is the wise thing to do.”
Calling the radio breakfast show from her hospital bed Keller, 52, told listeners she was feeling much better but will undergo further tests.
“I’ve done some work with the Victor Chang Foundation and I know that symptoms of heart attacks for women aren’t what they are for men,” she said.
“I had the tightness in my chest, I was sweaty and hot.”
“Everything seems to be fine. I’ve had ECGs and chest X-rays, I’ve had blood tests.”
Friend and journalist, Lisa Wilkinson, took to twitter this morning to wish Amanda a speedy recovery.
Sending big love this morning to radio & TVhost Amanda Keller who’s in hospital aft suffering cardiac issues at a movie premiere last night.
A spokesperson for Amanda’s employer ARN has since released a statement which reads:
“She’s still in hospital now for final tests and she called into Jonesy on WSFM this morning,” the statement said. “Needless to say, she’s an absolute trooper and all at ARN wish her a speedy recovery!”
