Country singer Mark Chesnutt has “a new heart” after recently undergoing an emergency quadruple bypass. Chesnutt, 60, announced Tuesday on Instagram that he was at home recovering more than a week after he was rushed to the hospital for the procedure. The singer took to Instagram on Tuesday to address fans just more than a week after he was rushed to the hospital for the surgery.

“Well folks, doc says I got a new heart!” Chesnutt wrote in the caption which included an old video of him rehearsing for a show. “I’m recovering comfortably at home with my family. Today we sat on the porch just soaking in the sun and that beautiful Texas weather.

But I can’t wait to get back to pickin’ and singin’ with all my favorite fans! Thank you for all the well wishes and prayers. They have helped and meant the world to me in my time of need. I appreciate you all so very much.

See yuh soon!” Fans were quick to show their support for the “Brother Jukebox” singer in the comments. “Glad to hear your recovery is going good but just take your time and don’t rush because you don’t want to hurry that would possibly cause a setback,” one fan wrote in the comments. “But so happy to hear your doing well.

Just keep following doctors’ orders too. Get well soon Mark.” “Sooooo glad Mark,” another comment read.

“Hope you have a speedy recovery. My wife had double bypass in 2019 and she’s doing good. You’ll be back on that stage before you know it.

All your fan.
