Gemma Collins reveals her mother Joan has been rushed to hospital and is in intensive care after having to resuscitate her.
The TOWIE star, 43, took to social media, telling fans her mom Joan is ‘really ill at the minute’.
What Happened?
In a video shared to Instagram, Gemma explained: ‘My mum is really ill at the minute, she’s in intensive care.
‘It’s been a hell of a time and you know, I’m really happy, and well not that happy, because my mum’s in intensive care, but she is on the mend, thank god.’
Gemma later wrote: ‘Last week I had the shock of my life when my mum stopped breathing. I called an ambulance and was told to prepare for the worst and would I like to resuscitate her.
She Is Stable Now
She however reassured fans that Joan is now ‘stable’ and will ‘hopefully’ be much better soon.
She has openly spoken about her mother’s health struggles in the past – In August last year, Gemma shared a snap of her mother with a breathing tube in her nose after being admitted to Queens Hospital in Essex.
She wrote: ‘Such a scary moment when Mum comes to hospital. Thank you Queens Hospital Romford for all you’re doing.’
