LOS ANGELES, July 24 (Xinhua) -- Legendary Hollywood actress Zsa Zsa Gabor is "doing a little better" but still in critical condition, her husband Frederic Prinz von Anhalt said on Saturday morning.

The 93-year-old Hungarian-born actress, who broke her hip in a fall a week ago Saturday, remained hospitalized at Ronald Reagan University of California Los Angeles Medical Center. She underwent a 3.5-hour hip replacement surgery on Monday.

The actress was able to speak a few words on Saturday morning but still did not respond to questions. She received a blood transfusion on Friday night, Von Anhalt, Gabor's 9th husband said.

For the last three days she had not been able to swallow food or liquids, but her doctors hoped she soon would be able to eat, Von Anhalt was quoted as saying by the Los Angeles Times.

However, the hospital has made no official comment on her conditions.

Daughter Constance "Francesca" Hilton denied reports that her mother was critically ill and not responding to human contact. She described her condition as guarded.

The Hollywood legend has been married nine times, and Francesca is the offspring from her marriage with second husband -- hotel magnate Conrad Hilton.

Gabor, who was partially paralyzed in a 2002 car wreck, fell out of bed while watching television and reaching to answer the phone at her Bel-Air home, which she bought from Elvis Presley in 1974. In 2005, she also suffered a stroke.

In 1989, she was sentenced to 72 hours in jail for slapping a Beverly Hills police officer who pulled her over.

She appeared frequently on television and in dozens of films in the 1950s and 1960s, including "Moulin Rouge" in 1952 and the Orson Welles 1958 classic "A Touch of Evil."
