JAKARTA - The personnel of the duo group Hall & Oates, Daryl Hall, has just announced that he has undergone a kidney transplant surgery.
The news was shared directly by Hall through his official social media account. He expressed his gratitude to the donor who saved his life.
However, Hall did not elaborate further on the disease he suffered from until he had to receive an organ donor.
"Hello everyone. I guess you all must know that I recently received a kidney transplant from a very kind and generous living donor," wrote Daryl Hall, quoting the caption of the upload, Thursday, June 25.
The operation was carried out several weeks ago in private. Based on the information from the medical team handling it, the surgery went very smoothly without any significant obstacles.
"That was a few weeks ago, and I've started to feel better. According to my doctor, the surgery was a total success!" added Hall.
Hall also emphasized that the recovery process was going very fast. He projected that he would be active again in the entertainment industry, including continuing his popular music series project, Live from Daryl's House, as well as several concert schedules that had been delayed.
"I have to get back to normal in a few months," he said.
For information, before informing his health condition, Daryl Hall's name was the main focus of the media due to a fierce legal dispute with his former duet partner, John Oates. The conflict was triggered by Oates's move to try to sell half of the shares of their joint venture without Hall's approval.
"No amount of money can compensate me for being forced into a partnership with an entity I did not agree to partner with, and whose business model is not in line with my views," Hall said in his lawsuit documents at the time.
The legal dispute, which Hall called a 'betrayal of the highest partnership', was finally ended peacefully through arbitration in August 2025. However, details of the dissolution and settlement agreement are still kept secret from the public until now.
Now, after legal affairs and health problems have begun to be resolved, Hall is focusing on the post-operative recovery period.
