‘Duck Dynasty’ star Phil Robertson diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, family reveals

“Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease amid his battle with a blood disorder, according to his family.

The 78-year-old’s health struggles were revealed by his son, Jase, on Friday’s episode of the “Unashamed with the Robertson Family” podcast titled “Phil’s Diagnosis.”“Phil’s not doing well,” Jase said. “According to the doctors, they’re sure that he has some sort of blood disease that’s causing all kinds of problems.”The Robertson patriarch had been fighting the blood disease for a “few years” but Jase said that it has now “accelerated.”“It’s causing problems with his entire body and he has early stages of Alzheimer’s so if you put those things together, he’s just not doing well.
