A soap star has revealed that her son has been rushed to A&E after an accident, just weeks after she also ended up in the emergency room.

Brookside star Jennifer Ellison took to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday to reveal she was back at the hospital again.

Sharing a pH๏τo of her son being treated by a nurse, she revealed the accident had happened the night before she was due to go to London for work.

The actress, 41, lamented that this latest A&E trip meant she’d had more hospital visits in 2025 alone than in the last five years.

Captioning a snap from the waiting room, Jennifer wrote: ‘Just what you need need day before you travel to London. Been here more times this year than in the last five years.’

She then posted a pH๏τo of her son having his arm wrapped up into a cast, explaining he had been hurt ‘the night before’ she was going to be ‘working away for five days’.

Jennifer is the proud mother of three boys with her husband Robbie Tickle – Bobby, 15, Harry, 11, and 10-year-old Charlie.

On Wednesday morning, she revealed she was suffering with feelings of ‘mum guilt’ as she was forced to say goodbye to go on her work trip.

She shared a pH๏τo of her son tucked up in bed with his plaster cast, and admitted: ‘Not easy at all leaving the boys this morning. Especially this one. Working mum guilt’.

It comes less than a month after Jennifer had to be rushed to A&E herself with a mystery illness.

Last month, she took to her Instagram Story to share a pH๏τo of a drip in her arm at the hospital.

She penned in the caption: ‘The gift that keeps on giving,’ followed by a sad face and added: ‘Need to feel well again’, but didn’t further explain what had happened. 

Jennifer is best known for playing Emily Shadwick in the television soap opera Brookside until 2003, and as Meg Giry in the 2004 film adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera.

During her Brookside stint she became a lads’ mag favourite, as she would frequently pose in scanty ensembles and stunned the red carpet with her figure.

Last year Jennifer revealed she’s stopped dieting and is finally ‘confident’ with her body.

She said her weight had gone up and down ‘so much’ over the years but she is now ‘happy’ with her weight of just over 10 stone.

She told Closer Magazine: ‘I’m not the smallest I’ve ever been, but am at a happy weight where I feel OK getting into a ʙικιɴι or a costume in the swimming pool. I’m in a happy and confident place.

‘I am about 10¾st at the moment. I don’t feel I’m in that rat race anymore of having to look amazing. I’ve stopped trying to diet. 

‘When you do faddy diets they don’t work, so I’ve given up. My weight has gone up and down so much over the years so I just try to eat healthily now.’

Jennifer told the publication about losing her confidence after gradually gaining weight and going up to a size 18.

She recalled: ‘My agent would phone me up, and the thought of going for an audition… I would refuse. I’d say “I can’t do it”.

‘I had lost my confidence. I had literally given up on myself’. 

The year before Jennifer revealed she had ‘given up’ on herself before doing Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins last year.

She said: ‘I’d given up on myself. I never looked in the mirror. I didn’t think I could ever go back on stage because no one would want me.

‘I had gone from being this girl known for acting and men’s mags to becoming this mum and teacher.’
