by Eddie Trunk recently shared an update on Ace Frehley’s health condition during his radio show. He addressed widespread rumors about the KISS guitarist’s recent medical situation, as reported by KISS Bootleg Art on Instagram.
A KISS fan provided details about the situation and Trunk’s comments regarding Frehley’s condition.
“In recent days, fans were informed of an accident Ace suffered in his recording studio, and it was subsequently announced that all Ace performances for 2025 would be canceled,” the fan wrote. “This is all being kept as official information.”
The fan continued to explain the rumors that had been circulating and Trunk’s response to them.
“This week, rumors spread that Ace had a stroke caused by high blood pressure. But yesterday, Eddie Trunk commented on his show that he had spoken to Ace and confirmed he had not had a stroke,” they said. “Although he knows about Ace’s condition, he will not reveal it until Ace and Family decide to publicly disclose it.”
The fan noted that band members have been asking for support during this time.
“That’s all we know so far, although two members of their band posted asking for prayers for Ace, and one of them said he was free for some musical project,” they added.
The health concerns began in late September when the 74-year-old guitarist experienced complications that led to significant tour disruptions.
Louder Sound reported that Frehley suffered a minor fall in his recording studio. This resulted in a hospital visit and prompted the cancellation of his Antelope Valley Fair appearance on September 26, 2025. While the initial injury was described as minor, the situation appears to have developed into more serious health concerns.
On October 6, 2025, Blabbermouth revealed that Frehley announced the cancellation of all remaining 2025 tour dates due to ongoing, unspecified medical issues. His medical team advised him to refrain from travel to allow for full recovery. This suggests the condition requires extended rest and treatment.
Despite the stroke rumors circulating on social media and various online platforms, no official confirmation has been provided regarding the specific nature of Frehley’s medical condition. The only verified information comes from official statements referencing ongoing medical issues and the studio fall. No details about a stroke or other specific diagnoses have been released.
The exact nature of Frehley’s health condition remains undisclosed pending an official statement from the guitarist or his family.
