‘Just a reminder you never know what’s round the corner and you never know when your last days going to be! Be kind always’. 

Reflecting on the terrifying ordeal she wrote:  ‘Just waking up everyday, breathing, feeling my heart beat – those are the miracles. My body, even after everything, brought me back. And for that, I am in awe of it.

‘I am learning to love myself in a way I never did before – not for how ‘perfect’ I look or how ‘together my life is, but for simply being here. Alive. 

‘This experience has reminded me how fragile and beautiful life really is. I don’t need to control it – I just need to live it, moment by moment, with graтιтude.’ 

The terrifying health scare came just days after she and Sam went Instagram official on Monday with a string of snaps together. 

The couple donned matching black ensembles, with Sam sat on a chair in plain jeans and a matching T-shirt that showed off his tattooed arms.

Captioning the striking sH๏τs, Sam confirmed their relationship status, writing: ‘newest addition’ with a heart emoji.
