Fox 2 anchor Amy Andrews has given her followers an update on social media, saying she’s back in the hospital having tests done on her spine and her head after experiencing an “unexpected fall.”
“It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem, it’s me,” Andrews wrote in an Instagram post over the weekend, quoting lyrics from Taylor Swift’s “Anti-Hero.”
“Yes, I’m in the hospital again. While recovering from a barrage of medical issues,” she wrote. “It looks like I’m going to be here for a little while.”
Andrews previously updated fans and viewers on her condition in February, saying she was on medical leave as she continued treatment for Dysautonomia, a disorder that affects heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
“My focus is following my doctors’ guidance so that I can return safely and consistently,” she said at the time.
In April, she posted to Instagram that she was having surgery to help with her Dysautonomia symptoms.
Andrews has been at WJBK-TV (Fox 2) since 2011. She is a Metro Detroit native and a graduate of both Oakland University and Specs Howard.
She took time off from the station in 2024 and 2022 due to mental health issues, sharing in 2022 she was “suffering from debilitating depression and anxiety.” She underwent back surgery in 2021 and posted updates regarding her recovery on social media.
She was back on Fox 2’s airwaves in September 2025 and then was absent from the station for a brief period in November. She returned to the air before leaving again in February.
“Trust me, I’d much rather be with YOU, but for now I’m trying to rest, get some answers, and focus on getting better,” she said in her update over the weekend.
“Most of all, I’d appreciate your prayers. I miss you, I love you guys, and I’m hoping to be back to causing trouble very soon.”
