Glenn Hughes is home after a 10-hour open-heart surgery.
The former Deep Purple bassist and singer shared the update on social media, writing: "Now home after an eight day stay, and a 10 hour open heart surgery, operation, at UCLA Ronald Reagan, Medical Center. Gratitude beyond." He also thanked fans, adding, "Thank you for walking beside me."
The surgery comes two months after Hughes retired from touring and live performances. At the time, he said MRIs, CT scans and an echocardiogram had led his medical team to recommend another open-heart surgery, explaining, "I really have no option and no choice as health is my number one priority."
Hughes previously had heart surgery in 2013 to replace his aortic valve.
