«Breaking News» The Greatest Showman star Sam Humphrey 'fighting for his life' as he undergoes high-risk surgery

Sam Humphrey is in critical condition and fighting for his life as he prepares to undergo a very risky surgery.

The 24-year-old actor, who played General Tom Thumb in The Greatest Showman, is suffering from complications with Crohn's disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease. 

His condition has been made worse by his skeletal dysplasia.

Ill: Sam Humphrey is in critical condition and fighting for his life as he prepares to undergo a very risky surgery.

'He is currently under the care of some of the best doctors in the world at Cedars Sinai and is undergoing high-risk corrective surgery,' his family said in a statement.

The star has already been in the hospital for 'weeks,' according to TMZ.

Last year's The Greatest Showman was the Kiwi's first big screen role.

The film — which also starred Hugh Jackman, Michelle Williams, Zac Efron and Zendaya — was nominated for Best Original Song at this year's Oscars.

He has also appeared in several episodes of Australian soap Neighbours, as well as a number of theater productions.

The 4'2" star was born with a rare genetic disorder called acrodysplasia, which prevents proper formation of parts of the skeleton.

Coupled with his childhood diagnosis of Crohn's disease, he spent much of his early life in and out of hospitals; doctors did not expect him to reach his teen years, let alone adulthood.

He previously revealed he had attempted suicide several times, but eventually overcame his disabilities to successfully pursue his dream to become an actor.

The real life General Tom Thumb — whose real name was Charles Stratton — was a famous dwarf performer under circus pioneer P.T. Barnum.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
