TV vet Kelsey Grammer suffered a mild heart attack on Saturday, and is now resting comfortably in a Hawaiian hospital.

Grammer, 53, is expected to be released early this week.

"Grammer experienced symptoms Saturday morning after paddle-boarding with his wife Camille at their Hawaiian home," reads a statement from Grammer's rep. "He was immediately taken to an area hospital where it was determined that he had a mild heart attack."

Stan Rosenfield, Grammer's agent, said his involvement in the prospective ABC series Roman's Empire will not be affected as the pilot has already been taped. — MWM

The news that Grammer had joined Roman's Empire was dated May 24. Yet, as of Saturday -- one week later -- they had already filmed the pilot?

Wow, that was fast!

I guess he was "heartbroken" about his cancelled show "Back to You". Ok maybe it's not that funny (just a little??) but I had to try. I hope Kelsey gets better fast. He's always been a terrific actor and I thought his show should NOT have been canceled but given another season to improve. He and Patricia Heaton were very good together. Speedy recovery Kelsey.
