Good Morning Britain regular Iain Dale rushed to hospital
GMB regular Iain took to Instagram recently to share some worrying news with his 14k followers.
The 60-year-old uploaded a snap of himself in a hospital bed for his followers to see.
“Some news. This afternoon I tripped at the top of an escalator at Charing Cross Underground. I was taken by Ambulance to St Thomss’s hospital,” the GMB star captioned the post.
“I’ve badly broken my right hip. Hip replacement op probably on Monday. Trying to be a brave little soldier but after my fall at Buxton last year and my current eye issues, I’m beginning to think the Gods of Health are trying to tell me something,” he then continued.
