Former President Bill Clinton, 79, is facing renewed public concern over his health after being spotted at a Hamptons airport with what appeared to be a portable defibrillator. The device, believed to be a Propaq MD Air Medical Bag, was carried by someone accompanying him and his wife, Hillary Clinton, as they exited the plane.
Clinton’s well-documented history of heart and lung issues dates back over two decades. He underwent a quadruple bypass surgery in 2004 after nearly suffering a major heart attack, received stents in 2010, and had lung surgery in 2005. In recent years, he was hospitalized for sepsis in 2021 and again in December 2024 due to a fever.
Two months earlier, Clinton was seen stumbling on a New York City sidewalk—adding to growing worry among observers. No official statement has been released regarding his condition following these events.
As a former president and high-profile public figure, Clinton continues to engage publicly—attending events and preparing for forthcoming congressional testimony in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. But the recent defibrillator sighting—and his prior health incidents—remind many of the fragility that can accompany advanced age and medical history.
