AceShowbiz - Jep Robertson of "Duck Dynasty" experienced a health scare over the weekend. A representative revealed that the younger brother of Willie Robertson suffered a seizure while deer hunting.
"Earlier this week while deer hunting, Jep suffered from a seizure. Thankfully, he was in the stand with friends, and Willie was at the hunting camp when it occurred so he was by his side in a matter of minutes," the rep said.
"Jep was rushed to the hospital and received immediate treatment. He is doing well now, but is still in the hospital for additional tests and observation, and he is being treated with antibiotics to cover a range of possible infections believed to have caused the seizure."
"Our family would like to thank everyone for their love and support and ask that you keep Jep, Jessica and their children in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time."
Jeb himself added on Twitter, "Well, I about died this past Sunday...I'm doing much better now. Thanks for all the prayers! #seizuresuck #gladtobealive."
Jeb has appeared on the A&E show with his family since 2012. He recently supported his niece, Sadie Robertson, during one of her "Dancing With the Stars" performances recently.
