Sky News are calling it a stroke on the ticker but are still covering the Royal wedding.

CNN are reporting:
Sen. Edward Kennedy was rushed to a hospital in Massachusetts Saturday morning, a well-informed, prominent Democratic source in that state told CNN.

Kennedy was transferred to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston after spending less than an hour in the Cape Cod Hospital emergency room, a spokesman for the Cape Cod facility told CNN.

David Reilly said Kennedy was admitted to the Cape Cod emergency room around 9 a.m. ET. Massachusetts General said it had no information on Kennedy.

The source said the 76-year-old senator had "symptoms of a stroke" at the Kennedy family compound in Hyannis.
