Talk show host Larry King is in the hospital due to coronary complications.

 “Larry has been in the hospital with heart issues and other things,” revealed an insider to Page Six.

The legend even had to spend his 87th birthday on the hospital bed. That, however, did not stop him to commemorate his Friars Club friend, David Dinkins, who died Monday at 93.

King issued a statement upon Dinkin’s death on Monday.

King said in a statement: “David was a fellow Friar for 30 years — he was always there for the Friars and good causes throughout New York, the city he loved even more than tennis."

"He will not only be missed by the club, but by all New Yorkers. David never said no to the Friars, and during spirited board meetings, he was always the voice of calm and reason. He had a great sense of humor and loved to laugh. I will miss him,” King concluded.
