Prayers for the whole Kimmel family. They are an awesome family.🙏❤️

[@wintercame]

They are. I enjoyed the broadcasts in his home during the pandemic, got to see him cooking in the kitchen and met the family. His darling wife guesses all the Bachelor and Bachelorette picks correctly.

[@iamyou8416]

This was great news!! I think Billy has hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), the same thing my grandson had when he was born. Unfortunately, my grandson passed away at three months. 😢. Please correct me if I’m wrong…

[@lifeofdazz]

Much respect to his family get well soon we are all with you jimmy

[@kennielsen3896]

You know in these troubled times; nothing brings me back to reality like Jimmy Kimmel. He's so well balanced and is so in touch with reality. He sometimes pushes me into reality, but without insulting me. He's not perfect, he's just real. It's funny hearing his stories of his kids. He's my age but with a 7- and 9-year-old. I cringe at being a parent at his age, but I have a brother and a friend who didn't have kids until age 50 and that seriously is the best thing that could have happened to them.
