Speaking exclusively to RadarOnline.com from her home in Los Angeles, Ali's third wife, actress Veronica Porche, 60, said that her daughters by the champ, Laila – a 38-year-old retired professional boxer — and Hana Yasmeen, 40, were en route to the hospital, where he was admitted Thursday with a respiratory issue.

"My daughters have both flown there and I will be hearing from them when they arrive at the hospital," Porche, who was married to Ali from 1977 to 1986, said.

"I can't comment more than that but I will say it is not so great, I'll just say that much. He's a real hero. It's a sad situation."

As RadarOnline.com reported, the athletic icon was hospitalized in 2014 with a case of pneumonia. He has been suffering from Parkinson's disease for decades.
