In an exclusive report from Showbiz411.com, the “Queen Of Soul,” Aretha Franklin is said to be “gravely Ill.” Aretha battled cancer back in 2010 and is now hospitalized in Detroit, with the website posting: “Aretha is surrounded by family and people close to her. She will be so missed as a mother, sister, friend, cousin. But her legacy is larger than life. It’s not just that Rolling Stone called her the Number One singer of all time, or that she is the Queen of Soul. Long live the Queen.”
No official word from the Franklin family has been issued.
