Phil Collins revealed his family prepared for his death after an April 2024 alcohol relapse led to hospitalization in Switzerland, where his organs began shutting down. The Genesis frontman told The Sunday Times his manager summoned his five children to discuss life-support decisions, though Collins has no memory of visitors saying goodbye. He relapsed after stopping the medication Antabuse, drinking wine each morning without recognizing his problem. Collins, who previously got sober in 2012 following acute pancreatitis, is now set for induction into the 2026 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for his solo work, alongside Oasis and Mariah Carey.
