Eko Hot Blog reports that Mrs. Pelosi, who is second in line to the US presidency, said her 82-year-old husband remained under medical care at home, surrounded by family.
Mr. Pelosi had surgery to repair a skull fracture and injuries to his right arm and hands after the assault.
He was struck by an intruder last Friday at the San Francisco home.
The suspect allegedly broke into the house intending to kidnap Mrs. Pelosi – prosecutors have branded it a politically motivated attack.
Mrs. Pelosi, a California congresswoman, said in a statement that her husband’s recovery continued following his release from Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital.
“The Pelosi family is thankful for the beautiful outpouring of love, support, and prayers from around the world,” she said.
Mrs. Pelosi said her husband was grateful to the police and medical staff for “their excellent and compassionate life-saving treatment he received after the violent assault in our home”.
“Paul remains under doctors’ care as he continues to progress on a long recovery process and convalescence,” her statement added. “He is now home surrounded by his family who request privacy.”
The suspect in the attack, 42-year-old Canadian national David DePape, allegedly forced his way into the Pelosis’ residence in the early hours of last Friday, confronting Mr. Pelosi in his bedroom and stating that “he was looking for Nancy”.
The Department of Homeland Security said on Wednesday night that the Canadian national was in the US illegally and could face eventual deportation.
Mr. DePape – who is currently being held without bail – pleaded not guilty this week to several charges, including attempted murder.
The Department of Justice has also charged him with two federal crimes of attempted kidnapping of a federal official and assaulting an immediate family member of a US official.
A blog, website and social media accounts under the name of the suspect contained anti-Semitic memes, Holocaust denial, references to far-right websites, and conspiracy theories such as QAnon.
