Melissa Rivers has given another update on her mother, Joan Rivers, saying that she remains on life support.
"On behalf of my mother and our family, we are extremely grateful for all the love and support we've received," Rivers said in a statement. "At this time she does remain on life support."
She added: "I know my mother would be overwhelmed by the continued outpouring of kindness and I want to thank everyone for keeping us in their prayers."
