Beth's lawyer Andrew Brettler confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that the former "Dog the Bounty Hunter" and "Dog and Beth" star was hospitalized on Tuesday.

Beth was taken to Cedar-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after having difficulty breathing, TMZ reported citing sources.

A large mass in her throat was then discovered.

Beth, 51, was diagnosed with stage 2 throat cancer in September 2017.

She later announced she was cancer-free during a two-hour special on A&E titled "Dog & Beth: Fight of Their Lives."

"I can confirm that Beth was hospitalized today and underwent surgery to remove a mass in her throat, which was determined to be a reoccurrence of the cancer. I understand that the situation is very serious," Brettler said in a statement.

"We are all concerned for her and the well-being of the Chapman family," he continued.
