Talk show host Robin Roberts was hospitalized recently, just as she had finally made her long-awaited return to co-host "Good Morning America," ABC's daytime wake-up program. Roberts was previously diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007 and successfully completed numerous chemotherapy treatments as well as radiation treatment.

Roberts contributes her recent hospitalization to an infection brought on by "complications" from her recent treatment for a bone marrow disease. Robin Roberts was treated last year for Myelodysplastic Syndrome, a blood disorder, for which she received a bone marrow transplant and was forced to take hiatus from GMA.

She said that she began to feel ill during a vacation in Key West, Fla., and flew home to New York to go to her doctor. The Mississippi native said she was "blessed that [her complications] have not been severe," as she is reportedly resting at her home following hospitalization, "Seems my young immune system needed a little boost to fight off 'opportunistic infections," she said.

MStar News reported that Roberts may be planning to marry her "longtime girlfriend", filmmaker Storm Sahara, but the report said that Roberts is choosing to keep her private life mostly private as she always had.
