Ray Donovan star and celebrated actor, Liev Schreiber, was rushed to the hospital in the wee hours of November 16 owing to 'unclear reasons'. According to TMZ, the actor has undergone a battery of tests, although his condition remains unclear.

In a statement to People Magazine, Schreiber's representative clarified:

“Out of an abundance of caution, Liev went into the hospital for testing and as of this afternoon, he has been cleared to return to work.”

Schreiber had opened up about his migraine-induced temporary amnesia during his 2024 appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, where he had said:

“I thought it was maybe a fast food headache, but it felt a little stronger than that. I’m walking down the stairs and I’m thinking, ‘This is not normal. I don’t feel okay.’”

Liev Schreiber was last seen in Darren Aronofsky's dark comedy Caught Stealing and co-parents two children he shares with Naomi Watts, with whom he separated after an 11-year-long relationship.


About Liev Schreiber's relationships

In his public life since his silver screen debut, Schreiber has been associated with two women, fellow actor Naomi Watts and supermodel Taylor Neisen. Schreiber and Watts started dating in 2005 before separating in 2016. Interestingly, despite dating for over a decade, the two never married. The couple shares two children: A son named Sasha and a trans daughter named Kai.

The couple had fallen victim to, as per what the netizens label, the 'Curse of 2016,' when a slew of celebrities either filed for divorces or separated from their partners. They issued a statement clarifying their decision:

“Over the past few months we’ve come to the conclusion that the best way forward for us as a family is to separate as a couple.”

Watts has often gone on record about sharing a good relationship with Schreiber, even after the separation. In a 2019 sit-down with The Sunday Times' Style magazine, she said:

“Having a good relationship has always been our endgame, and we've put a lot of energy and effort into making that so.”

Soon after his separation from Watts, Liev Schreiber and Taylor Neisen were publicly linked in 2017 but kept their romance out of the spotlight. The new couple married in 2023 and welcomed a baby girl, Hazel Bee, the same year.

Winner of Miss South Dakota 2012, Neisen has maintained an amicable relationship with Schreiber's former partner Watts.
