Gary ‘Gaz’ Beadle’s son was taken to hospital at the weekend.
The former Geordie Shore star and his girlfriend Emma McVey hosted a gender reveal party on Saturday (29.06.19) – where they discovered their second child will be a girl – but had to cut the celebrations short when 17-month-old Chester took a turn for the worse following a few days of feeling under the weather.

Emma posted on Instagram: “For all the absolute idiots trying to give me grief.
“I took Chester to the doctors Monday, but did they listen? No. I’m just an over-cautious mum. ‘He has a slight ear infection but doesn’t need antibiotics’.
“Yesterday I knew he was’t right, he has an ear infection and bladder infection so finally letting us have antibiotics.
“He was running around yesterday and everyone thought he was fine, I’m not stupid and I know my child.
“He was distracted, and that’s why he seemed ‘fine’. So no I didn’t make him stay at the party, I left my own party before everyone else to get him properly checked.”
Before they left to go to hospital, Chester joined his parents as they found out whether they were having a boy or a girl.
Gaz shared a video on Instagram in which he, Emma and their son stood in front of balloons and a cake decorated with the words “boy or girl”, and then 31-year-old star shot a confetti cannon, which showered them in pink paper to signify they are expecting a daughter.
He captioned the clip: “WOW it’s a…… total shock but absolutely buzzing little family complete. Also so happy for @emma_jane1392.
“So special to have Chester there with us… the life journey continues…. now just need names!” [sic]
And Emma wrote: “I don’t think we have EVER been so shocked…our little family is complete.”

“Chester changed my life and now to give him a brother or sister is just amazing I was so nervous with Chester but now it’s just excitement… @emma_jane1392.”
