Duane "Dog the Bounty Hunter" Chapman's wife Beth has been rushed to the hospital in Hawaii, as Us first exclusively reported.
The shocking medical emergency comes just months after Beth underwent throat cancer surgery last year.
Now a source told Us on Saturday, April 6, 2019, "Beth Chapman has been rushed to a Hawaii hospital with serious breathing issues. She hasn't been feeling well of late and Dog is by her side."
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Beth, 51, underwent emergency surgery on her throat on Tuesday, November 27, 2018 after learning the devastating news that her cancer had returned.
Beth was first diagnosed with throat cancer in 2017. It returned in 2018 and Duane's beloved wife told fans, "After months of a nagging cough, a routine checkup resulted in a diagnosis of stage II throat cancer I have what is referred to as a T2 Tumor in my throat that is blocking my breathing. My doctors are suggesting immediate treatment and surgery before the disease progresses."
After she was forced to undergo emergency surgery in 2018, Beth has worn a wig. She lost her hair during chemotherapy treatments.
Beth had the surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles last year with Duane keeping an anxious vigil.
Shocking hospital photos obtained by RadarOnline.com showed Beth crying.
Afterwards, Duane exclusively revealed to RadarOnline.com that his cancer-stricken wife Beth had made the decision to leave the hospital in California against her doctors' advice.
They returned to their Colorado home at her insistence.
"Half of her lung was full of water," an emotional Duane told RadarOnline.com at that time.
Now Beth has been rushed to the hospital again in another battle for life.
"One thing everyone knows about Beth is that she's a fighter," the insider told Us.
But not long before RadarOnline.com learned the news of her latest hospitalization, Beth had tweeted the cryptic words, "I quit," along with a clip from the movie That Thing You Do.
