She continued: ‘Woke up 5am on Friday morning, high on anaesthetic and certain I could get into work to host the show as normal..
‘Pretty nasty few days, the bacteria had spread and infected my blood etc and told to take this week off by @jadeens.
‘I’m sore and shuffling around, can’t drive for a week, and no exercise for 4 weeks (!) so really it’s the boredom that will kill me!
