ITV star Brenda Edwards has been raced to hospital after taking a nasty fall during an outing in Blackpool.
The 53-year-old Loose Women regular was taken to A&E after she’d slipped on wet pavement.
Taking to Twitter to share her frustrations with fans, Brenda confirmed the painful stumble has now meant that she’s been forced to pull out of her role in Chicago.

Showing the evidence, Brenda took a snap of her leg bandaged up in a white cast as she lay on a hospital bed.
The television personality captioned: “Gutted I’ll not be able to do my 2 shows today @ChicagoOnStage after slipping on a dodgy wet pavement here in Blackpool and fracturing my fibula.

“I was ready to go on in a wheelchair, nowt wrong with my voice, but I can’t.
“Hope to rejoin the wonderful talented cast soon.”
Many of Brenda’s adoring on-screen co-stars rushed beneath the post to offer up their well wishes.

Another fan shared a sweet selfie with the TV star, commenting: “Such a shame Brenda that you can’t do the shows get better soon – sending you the biggest hug ever.”
While a third wrote: “OMG, Brenda, how unlucky… so sorry this has happened to you. On the plus side, hopefully you will still be able to do my favourite show Loose Women… I was in the audience before lockdown and you are brilliant. Hope you get better very soon.”
It’s be an extremely emotional and tough year for Brenda already after her 31-year-old son Jamal died while holding her hand.

He’d suffered a traumatic heartache at home which an inquest concluded last month was caused by the music producer taking recreational drugs.
Following the shocking result from the inquest, the grieving mum took to her social media platform vowing to raise awareness.
Brenda wrote: “Since finding out the news I’ve been in a state of shock, and I’m still trying to process it, but it’s so important to me that I do address it as no mother or any loved one should have to go through what Jamal’s sister, Tanisha, and I have been through since he passed.
“Jamal had the world at his fingertips – a zest for life and he was unwittingly taken away far too soon.
“Yet we have come to terms with what has happened, and Jamal is proof this can happen to anyone.”
She also warned that bad decision can ultimately ruin lives, explaining that drugs are scarily unpredictable.
