Former New York City mayor and President Donald Trump supporter Rudy Giuliani has been hospitalized in critical condition in Florida.
“Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he’s fighting with that same level of strength as we speak,” the politician’s spokesperson, Ted Goodman, told multiple outlets, including The New York Times, on Sunday, May 3.
While the spokesperson declined to specify which Florida hospital Giuliani, 81, is being treated at, he did tell the newspaper of record that those caring for the former mayor are asking for people to “join us in prayer.”
On Sunday, Fox News reported that while Giuliani is in critical condition, he is “stable.”
Per The New York Times, it is unclear how long Giuliani has been hospitalized and what health condition he is currently facing.
This is not the first time the political figure has faced health issues. In September 2025, he was injured after being involved in a car accident in New Hampshire.
The former mayor was the passenger in a Ford Bronco when the vehicle was struck from behind in Manchester, according to local police.
“[Giuliani] was diagnosed with a fracture thoracic vertebra, multiple lacerations and contusions, as well as injuries to his left arm and lower leg,” the politician’s security guard, Michael Ragusa, said in a statement shortly after the incident, per the BBC.
The incident occurred shortly after Giuliani was said to have assisted an alleged, unknown victim of domestic violence, who his security guard claimed flagged him down while walking alongside the road.
“Mayor Giuliani immediately rendered assistance and contacted 911,” Ragusa claimed at the time. Later, local New Hampshire police confirmed officers were investigating a reported domestic violence incident in the area at the time of the crash.
“As a result of the collision, both vehicles went into the median and were heavily damaged,” police further added. No charges were filed after authorities investigated the nature of the crash.
Giuliani, who was elected mayor of New York City in 1993, became a household name after the deadly terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. He was soon known as “America’s Mayor,” credited for helping both the city and the country heal from the devastation.
His political stock plummeted, however, after he became a staunch supporter of Trump, 79, and claimed former President Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential election victory was “rigged.” Giuliani reached a $148 million settlement with two former election workers who successfully sued the former mayor for defamation over his false election fraud claims.
