Glenn Close reveals hip replacement surgery following fan concerns

Actress Glenn Close has addressed concerns from fans regarding her recent use of a walking cane. In a video posted to Instagram, the 79-year-old star explained that she underwent a complete hip replacement after discovering her left hip was in “really bad shape.”
