In a post for her 278k followers to see, This Morning star Michelle shared a selfie from her hospital bed.

The star could be seen lying in bed, wearing a hospital gown, with a blood pressure cuff around her arm.

“Well life took a turn. There are so many things I love about being single but one thing that’s absolute pants is going to A&E alone in the middle of the night,” Michelle captioned the post.

Well life took a turn.

“Not having family in the country, number 1 bestie or a partner means I often struggle to even list an emergency contact,” she then continued.

“It’s one of the reasons I’m so passionate about Bad Friend, you might have a whole bunch of friends to invite to your birthday but how many do you have who you can call at midnight to come with you to A&E? The irony is not lost on me that my last post was saying how this year was turning out to be my best year yet,” she then wrote.

Michelle split from her fiancé last April after she discovered he’d been cheating.

Michelle then continued.

“Even two days ago, I was being asked about my past surgeries and I said I’d been on such a good streak,” she then wrote.

“I also got asked the other day how do you deal with chronic illness and I said this: live as much life as you can between the hospitalisations. And right now, I really really mean it,” she then went on to say.

“PS so grateful for the NHS, every person was so kind and patient, especially for midnight.”

Michelle didn’t go into detail over why she went to hospital. However, she has spoken about previous health battles in the past.

The star was born with a brain tumour and hydrocephalus, an excess of cerebrospinal fluid. She went to hospital aged 11 so doctors could run tests on her brain.

However, she flatlined during the tests.

Speaking about the experience during an appearance on Loose Women.

“I still remember floating above my bed,” she said.

“What’s really nice to know is it’s a really calm sensation when you die, and that’s what I’d like to tell people because it gives you a bit solace that even in the last moments it’s really peaceful and really calm,” she then continued.

“In my head it was five minutes but apparently it was a few seconds. I remember everything that happened but apparently my eyes were closed. I didn’t talk about it for years but it makes me sound a bit crazy,” she then added.

Following her latest health woe, her followers sent their support in the comment section of her Instagram.

“Ah Michelle, sorry to see you’re in A&E. I really appreciate your perspective on this. Wishing you a speedy recovery,” one follower wrote.

“Sending lots of love [love heart emoji] you’re so not alone in this situation, you’ve got this!” another said.

Sending love Michelle!” a third added.
