The former director of the CIA and the National Security Agency, General Michael Hayden, has suffered a stroke.

Hayden, 73, was hospitalized last week after having the stroke at home, his family said on Friday.

Under both Bush and former President Bill Clinton he served as director of the National Security Agency. 

Hayden is a visiting professor at George Mason and a national security analyst for CNN.

Hayden 'is receiving expert medical care for which the family is grateful,' his family said in a statement released by the Michael V. Hayden Center for Intelligence, Policy, and International Security, associated with George Mason University.

'As General Hayden begins the healing process, the family requests that their privacy be respected. The General and his family greatly appreciate the warm wishes and prayers of his friends, colleagues, and supporters,' the statement continued.

There were immediate details about the stroke's severity.

Hayden has been a vocal critic of both the Obama and Trump administrations.  

In 2014 he said President Barack Obama's reliance on airstrikes to combat ISIS showed a lack of commitment.

When President Trump announced in August that he had revoked former CIA director John Brennan's security clearance, Hayden said at the time, 'with regard to the implied threat today that I could lose my clearance, that will have no impact on what I think, say or write.'

On Twitter, Gina Haspel, director of the CIA said on behalf of the CIA she wanted to wish him 'a speedy recovery.'

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.
