Britney Spears’ ex hubby, who was filming for new reality weight-loss show ‘Excess Baggage,’ was feared to have suffered a heart attack when he was taken by ambulance to Mt Druitt Hospital.
However, according to the Herald Sun, doctors later ruled out indications of cardiac arrest and the former backing dancer was released after undergoing further tests.
"Excess Baggage contestant Kevin Federline has been given the all-clear after spending the day in medical care,'' a spokesman for TV production company Fremantle Media told the Herald Sun.
"Kevin and producers became concerned with his extreme pulse rate and abnormal heart beat during a week six challenge of the program. The program medic took the action of calling an ambulance so that a hospital could assess his well-being. After more tests, he was released late last night."
It’s the second time the 17-stone US star, who’s the father of Brit’s sons Sean Preston, six, and Jayden James, five, has been taken to hospital since beginning filming nine weeks ago.
33-year-old K-Fed, who’s piled on the pounds since splitting with the ‘Toxic’ hitmaker in 2006, was previously treated for “heat stress.”
