Mr. Simmons’s longtime lawyer said he had been hospitalized after a heart attack. “We’re just praying,” the ex-manager, Nakia Walker, said, adding that some of Mr. Simmons’s relatives had been allowed to see Mr. Simmons in the hospital. Murray Richman, a lawyer who has represented Mr. Simmons for 25 years, said that Mr. Simmons was hospitalized after he had a heart attack at his home in White Plains, N.Y., on Friday. “He is truly an amazing person,” Mr. Richman said.
