Dame Elizabeth Taylor has been released from hospital in Los Angeles.

The Oscar-winning actress, 77, had been admitted to an undisclosed facility last Saturday for a routine checkup.

Writing on her Twitter account yesterday, she said: "I'm home from the hospital and feeling great. Thanks for all the love and support."

An earlier message to a friend had joked that she wanted her puppy sneaked past hospital security.

Her representative recently dismissed reports that Taylor's health is deteriorating as "dramatic, overstated and untrue".
