She told Hello!: “I assumed I was pregnant.

"I thought, ‘This can’t be happening’. Having children has never been part of the plan.”

She continued: "When I was told that my condition was creating a high risk of a stroke or worse, I was stunned.

"I never get ill and this was a real wake-up call. It's been a slow recovery but I should be healed completely soon."
