US rapper Snoop Dogg, real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, shares Cori with his wife Shante. The couple also share two sons, 29-year-old Corde and 26-year-old Cordell.
The Californian-born rapper shot to fame following the success of his debut album Doggystyle in 1993, and has gone on to release a host of albums across his career.
Among his back catalogue are hits including Gin And Juice and Drop It Like It's Hot. He has also featured in a string of films such as the 2004 Starsky & Hutch remake and coming-of-age drama Baby Boy.
Strokes are mostly suffered by older and middle-aged people, although one in four strokes in the UK happen to people of working age, according to the Stroke Association.
Risk factors include age, unhealthy lifestyles, other medical conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes, family history of strokes, and ethnicity - black and south Asian people are more likely to have strokes.
