Kim Pegula, who co-owns the Buffalo Bills, has been facing health issues for a while now. Kim is the president of Pegula Sports and Entertainment Company and was recently rumored to have died from a heart attack. But in reality, she's doing just fine.
The Buffalo Bills released a statement on behalf of their co-owner, saying she's been progressing well.
“Kim is progressing well and is resting and rehabilitating from a health issue. We are grateful for the medical professionals providing her care and to everyone for their prayers and well wishes.”

Last week, she was reportedly in the ICU with unexpected health issues. The family provided an update on her condition after she was admitted into hospital.
“Kim Pegula is receiving medical care as a result of some unexpected health issues. We are very grateful for the progress she has made over the past few days. She has an exceptional team of medical experts at her side. We ask that you keep Kim and our family in your prayers and ask that you respect our need for privacy.”
The good news right now is that Kim is in the clear. The team and the family have preferred to keep the details private, perhaps because of what they've seen happen on Twitter recently.
They didn't release any information other than the fact that she is resting and it's unclear if she has been released from the ICU.
Kim Pegula's net worth
In 2014, Kim and her husband Terry became the owners of the Buffalo Bills. They spent a whopping $1.4 billion to buy the Bills, beating out competition from Donald Trump and Jon Bon Jovi, among others.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Kim is currently worth $100 million. She holds the prestigious honor of being the first woman to serve as team president in both the NFL and NHL, where she is involved with the Buffalo Sabres.
The couple bought the Sabres in 2011, just three years prior to their record-setting purchase of the Bills.
Their company also manages the Buffalo Bandits (Lacrosse), the Rochester Americans (American Hockey League), Black River Entertainment (music label) and the Harbor Center (convention center).
