Chevy Chase suffering from memory loss following heart failure
Actor, comedian and “I am who I am” proponent Chevy Chase has let it slip that he is suffering from memory loss related to heart failure in 2021. Appearing on a recent episode of Dana Carvey and David Spade’s Saturday Night Live-centric podcast “Fly on the Wall”, Chevy Chase’s abnormalities in speech and thought let it slip that he is suffering from memory loss.
About halfway through the episode, Chevy Chase tries to recall a story about Richard Pryor, who hosted Saturday Night Live early on. Chase fumbles the dates a bit before pausing and saying, “I’m trying to remember why I started that [story]…I have a little pain in my heart.”
At that point, Chase’s wife, Jane, interrupted the gang. “I should’ve told you this ahead of time. In February last year, Chevy had heart failure…Basically, he was rather out of it for a while.
