We checked the internet and there are a few unverified stories posted that Phil
Collins is in hospice. According to a
July 28, 2025 article by the American music and entertainment magazine,
Billboard, Phil Collins was admitted on July the hospital for knee surgery and
is expected to make a full recovery.
The hospital photos appear to be A.I. generated and there is very little
resemblance of the man in the hospital bed to Phil Collins. The photo above was
taken at Collins' final performance with Genesis in 2024.
