Nancy Grace was released from the hospital yesterday after being admitted for complications from pulmonary edema. Grace gave birth to twins John David and Lucy Elizabeth on November 4th – two months early. After she was initially discharged from the hospital, Grace and her husband David Linch returned that night to visit the babies. While there she had severe shortness of breath and was examined by doctors, who said she was fine and sent her home. However her condition steadily declined until she could barely breathe by this past Sunday. She was admitted to the hospital, where an X-ray and CAT scan found some blood clots and fluid in her lungs. She was admitted to the hospital for monitoring and given medication.

Nancy Grace was released from the hospital on Thursday after checking in over the weekend due to complications from giving birth prematurely to twins on Nov. 4.

According to the CNN Headline News anchor’s rep, Grace’s condition is “much improved and she’s on the mend,” she tells PEOPLE.

Grace, 48, is currently at her Atlanta home with husband David Linch. The twins, John David and Lucy Elizabeth, remain under a doctor’s care. “‘Home’ is merely a word,” says Grace’s rep. “Nancy and David are spending all their time visiting the twins at the hospital.”

According to the rep, “Nancy hopes to bring the babies home for Thanksgiving. They have so much to be grateful for.”

The twins are doing much better as well. John David weighed 5 lbs., 1 oz. at birth and Lucy Elizabeth weighed 2 lbs., 15 oz. Both of them are doing well and have put on weight. Linch told People that John David was initially being fed through a tube and is now being fed by a bottle. Lucy is nearly ready for bottles as well. “They’re out of the critical area and have stabilized pretty well.” Some have noted that perhaps pregnancy will soften Nancy Grace a bit. She’s sure had a rough initiation into motherhood, hopefully things will look up for her from here.

Semi-crazy Nancy Grace gives birth to twins early

jtm-018117.jpg

Nancy Grace, the “semi-crazy” angry diatribist on Headline News, gave birth to twins on Sunday. I say “semi-crazy” because I want to avoid being sued, not because I really think she’s only semi-crazy. Grace and husband David Linch welcomed a boy, John David, and a girl, Lucy Elizabeth. Nancy had developed a pulmonary edema during her pregnancy and had to be induced early. I have no idea if tyrannical rage can lead to a higher rate of pulmonary edema, but if so, I would have to say that she brought this on herself.

“Her physician determined it would be best for Nancy, and for the twins, to deliver them [on Sunday],” a rep for Grace said. “Lucy Elizabeth, John David, and their proud parents are now resting comfortably.” John David weighed 5 lbs., 1 oz. at birth, and Lucy Elizabeth weighed 2 lbs., 15 oz. according to the rep. Grace, 48, had been due to give birth in January, PEOPLE reported this summer.

“The babies are doing fine. Our little girl is doing just as well as her brother despite her weight – and mom is doing great,” Linch tells PEOPLE. Pulmonary edema involves swelling and/or fluid accumulation in the lungs. No further details were given about Grace’s condition, or that of the twins, on Monday. Grace and Linch, an investment banker in Atlanta, married in April. According to Grace’s rep, John David is named for his father and John the Revelator. Lucy Elizabeth is named after Grace’s mother Elizabeth and grandmother Lucy.

Last month Grace was feted at a baby shower in Manhattan hosted by good pal and former Court TV colleague Diane Dimond. Linch and a host of pals, including Kimberly Guilfoyle and Lisa Bloom, attended and brought gifts such as a pair of his and hers cowboy booties for the twins to match mom’s signature pair.

Nothing classier than his and her cowboy boots. A nearly three pound baby is pretty tiny. Hopefully she’s doing okay. I have twin uncles who were born in the early fifties that weighed 1 pound each and were never expected to live. The nurses kept them alive by flicking their feet to keep their hearts beating. One would think that with all the neonatal technology these days, Lucy will be fine. Now growing up with a rageaholic mother might do a number on her, but physically she’ll probably be as healthy as the next kid. Yes I know Nancy Grace has good reason to be mad: her fiancé was murdered when she was 19 and she’s been a longtime crusader for victim’s rights. I applaud all of that. But just because I admire her tenacity doesn’t mean I don’t find her annoying as all get out. There’s a 50/50 chance that if she ever catches one of the twins egging someone’s house she’ll arrest them, prosecute them, and throw away the key before bedtime hits. Good luck kids.
