Christian Brando in ICU

Christian BrandoTMZ has learned that Christian Brando, the 49-year-old son of actor Marlon, is in bad shape at Hollywood Presbyterian hospital.

Sources tell TMZ that Brando was admitted on Jan. 11 and remains in ICU. The exact nature of his illness is unknown.

Brando was convicted of voluntary manslaughter in the 1990 death of his half-sister's boyfriend, Dag Drollet. Christian got out of prison in 1996.

In 2005, Christian pled guilty to abusing his then-wife. Deborah Presley (who claims she's Elvis' illegitimate daughter).

9. I came to this site out of curiosity, I do a lot of genealogy and found that I was related to Marlon Brando a few months ago which really means nothing to anyone but me...except that the familial relationship is what probably drove my curiousity. I am saddened to see so many individuals filled with so much hate over another human being. He was one of all of us, he had human frailties and made misguided decisions...that is even more of a reason for a little sympathy or empathy rather than much of the bile spilled at this site.

10. Well for me I wanted to meet him. I thought he was a great looking guy especially when in his younger days he was rugged and I liked him . I feel bad he did not have a good life and wasn't happy.

12. I'm so tired of all these hateful comments being made by people who didn't even know him. He was a sweet man that made some mistakes, he had his problems, yes, we all do. A lot of people say that if someone was doing something to hurt someone they loved, they'd kill them. A lot of you had probably said it yourselves. Chris actually did it though and despite what that lying cow Debbie said he regretted it.

Anyway, he's been gone a week now...RIP Christian
