Robert wrote on Twitter: “Started the day holding politicians to account on ⁦@GMB & interviewing Lulu & Richie Sambora…

“Finished it having a prolapsed disc in my back repaired & healed.. Life can change in a moment..

I struggle with the resting & patience bit.

“Hold on to joy wherever you find it (thanks brilliant medical team).”

Lord Sugar tweeted: “Definitely L4 and L5. Pain post op for a few days loss of use of legs etc but it will come back with physio. I [had] this in 2016. Be well mate.”
