News: Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, Uncle Phil's TV wife, Janet Hubert is ill

There’s a lot going on health-wise,” Hubert told Radar Online. “I have had a lot of issues over the years, but I’d like my benefits back. That’s all. They’ve sort of denied me some very very important medical things that I need to feel good.”

Janet Hubert, who played Aunt Viv on the Tv show, Fresh Prince of Bel Air until 1993, began struggling with her health in 2004 following a visit to a chiropractor, according to court documents. She was treated for “military neck,” a rare condition that causes the loss of spinal curvature. Her treatment was covered by the H&R fund, an employee benefit plan associated with AFTRA.
The following year she claims to have developed vertigo so severe she “was unable to drive…and was told to sleep sitting up for six weeks, which she did and which did not help.”
Unfortunately, her condition only got worse. Janet claims it wasn’t long before she “began developing a strange ‘chatter’ in her jaw; was unable to comb her hair; could not touch her face; had severe reactions to sound; would awaken with her mouth clenched; could not move her body in a manner she was used to; and found light painful.”
The actress filed the lawsuit last year in L.A. and requested a jury trial to get her unpaid benefits, attorneys fees and cost, retroactive relief for her treatments and an order forcing H&R to pay for forthcoming treatments.
#Heard she wasn't on talking terms with Will Smith & Alfonso Ribeiro for many years, hope she has now made up with them. Here's wishing her a quick recovery!
