Denise Welch rushed to hospital after health incident in holiday chaos

Denise Welch was taken to hospital after returning from holiday.

The Loose Women star was recently treated for an infection that left her “on a drip for a week”. While on the talk show, the panellist revealed that she was taken to medical professionals for acute peritonitis, which affects the inner abdominal lining.

She returned to the ITV show and discussed her health, explaining that she ended up in hospital after flying back from the Caribbean.

Welch explained: “I got back from a lovely holiday in the Caribbean last Saturday. All bronzed looking forward to coming on here and showing off my suntan. I got rushed into hospital on the Saturday with acute peritonitis – a perforated diverticulitis.”

“I’ve been in hospital for a drip for a week! They didn’t have to do surgery, they got it with antibiotics thankfully. As my mother said: ‘Take me to the knacker’s yard!”

The talk show star said that she is still recovering from the incident and feeling the effects of what happened: “I’m eating and believe you me, what’s going on down there, I’m a Loose Women – believe you me!”

Welch’s health update comes after she recently opened up about her relationship with husband Lincoln Townley. The famous couple competed on Celebrity Hunted and the Loose Woman admitted they “do have a good laugh” together.

“The thing with us is that we take our business very seriously, but we don’t take ourselves seriously. There’s a balance there, which really works because we have a good laugh.”

“We find humour in so many things together. I always thought there wouldn’t be one person that I fancy and be able to laugh with like I laugh with my girlfriends or my gay best friends. But I managed to find that in Lincoln.”

Welch, who is mother to The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, said that “laughter is very much a part of the success of their marriage”. In a sweet gesture she noted that “the very fact she didn’t want to do Celebrity Hunted with anyone else says it all”.
