Roberts -- born Victoria Leigh Blum -- is in the intensive care unit of Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, Pingel said. Pingel added that the 65-year-old actress, who collapsed at her home on December 24, is in dire condition.
Earlier in the day, Pingel mistakenly told ABC News that Roberts had died.
It is unclear what led to the confusion over Roberts' state.
