LONDON (CBSMiami) – Bee Gees star and former Miami resident Robin Gibb is in a coma and has pneumonia, according to a statement on his official website.

The statement, which confirmed media reports that the singer was gravely ill, said “we are all hoping and praying that he will pull through.”

Gibb recently battled colon and liver cancer. Doctors believe the 62-year-old has a secondary tumor.

Gibb had emergency surgery in 2010 for a blocked bowel and then had more surgery for a twisted bowel.

He is currently at a private hospital in Chelsea, West London.
