Primetime Emmy winning actor Christina Applegate has revealed a multiple sclerosis condition via a Twitter post late on Monday evening. “Hi friends. A few months ago I was diagnosed with MS. It’s been a strange journey. But I have been so supported by people that I know who also have this condition. It’s been a tough road. But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some asshole blocks it,” the Dead to Me actor posted. “As one of my friends that has MS said “we wake up and take the indicated action.” And that’s what I do. So now I ask for privacy. As I go through this thing. Thank you xo,” Applegate added. Variety has reached out to Applegate’s representation. Applegate won a Primetime Emmy for outstanding guest actress in a comedy series for Friends in 2003. She was nominated in the same
category for the same show in 2004.
In 2008 and 2009, Applegate was nominated for outstanding lead actress in a comedy series for Samantha Who? In 2019 and 2020, she was nominated in the lead actress category again for Dead to Me, which was also nominated for outstanding comedy series.
