“I know I told you all I was recovering last week, I had a small procedure in my belly last Monday which has led to some complications inside,” she wrote at the time. “It's very painful & so uncomfortable to move. It got worse [on] Thursday and was admitted to hospital [on] Friday.

“All the nurses are so lovely, so I'm in good hands. Miss cooking my dinners and sharing with you all. Just need some good energy put out for me please so I can be better to put up my tree and cook cute winter dinners.”

The Only Way Is Essex airs on ITVBe and streams on ITVX.
