Elizabeth Taylor has been hospitalized for complications due to congestive heart failure.

A rep for the 78-year-old film icon confirmed the issue is being addressed and she is currently being kept in the hospital for monitoring.

“Her family and close friends are appreciative of the warm support and interest of her loyal fans but have asked that people respect her privacy and allow her medical team the time and space to focus on restoring her back to health.”

Taylor was previously hospitalized for congestive heart failure in 2009.
