Terry Crews’ wife, Rebecca King-Crews, revealed her Parkinson’s disease diagnosis on the “Today” show Monday.
The 60-year-old was diagnosed back in 2015 but decided to “come forward now” because she recently underwent a procedure “to help with the symptoms on one side of [her] body.”
During a joint interview with her husband, she gushed, “I’m seeing improvement. … I’m able to write my name, my dates, I’m able to write with my right hand for the first time in probably three years.”
The singer noted she will “still [be] in recovery” for three months and continue to see improvement over that time, with a second procedure scheduled for September for the other side of her body.
Terry, who married Rebecca in July 1989, got emotional praising the “superhero” as the “rock” of their family amid her health struggles.
The couple, notably, share five children — Naomi, Azriél, Tera, Wynfrey and Isaiah.
Rebecca previously beat stage 1 breast cancer in 2020.
“Watch[ing] her go through what she [went] through the last 10 to 12 years has been very, very hard,” the actor told viewers. “The tremors, the not sleeping, the loss of balance.
“But to watch her write her name for the first time in three years, let me tell you,” the “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” alum continued. “I don’t know what to say, I’m choked up just thinking about it.”
