Richard Simmons says he is not being held hostage, despite a report that cited five friends who haven’t seen him for years.
Simmons hasn’t been seen in public since 2013.
“I am not kidnapped,” Simmons, 67, said in a phone interview with Entertainment Tonight on Sunday. “I am just in my house right now.”
I love all the people who worry about me, but it was time for me to take some time to be by myself.
