Grant Denyer's wife Chezzi shares heartfelt tribute to her husband taken right before gruelling 8 hour surgery
Chezzi Denyer has paid a heartfelt tribute to her husband for being her sense of 'calm' amid the storm of recovery from a lengthy seven and a half hour surgery. The former Sunrise producer, 43, who is married to TV presenter Grant Denyer, 47, took to Instagram on Monday to tell fans her partner is nursing her back to health following a surgery to address a post-pregnancy hernia. Chezzi recently opened up about her four-year health battle after a post-pregnancy hernia saw her struggle with nerve damage, unimaginable back pain and a lack of core strength. In the touching post, Chezzi shared a selfie taken with her husband of 15 years right before she went under the knife. She and Grant wore matching black sweaters in the picture as she rested her head on his shoulder and shared a sweet smile with him. 'My best friend. My soul mate. And at the moment, my chief nurse - Grant Denyer. Thank you x,' she captioned the touching message. 'This pic[ture] was taken when I was about to head in for surgery and I was really nervous,' Chezzi shared. 'Grant is exceptional at helping people stay calm... and that's exactly what he was doing here for me,' she wrote. 'I just stumbled on the photo, and paused for a minute to reflect and thought I'd post it to say thank you. 'I get my drains out today and will again lean on Grant's calming energy.' Chezzi went in for surgery two weeks ago, and shared the news with her fans last Thursday. In her post on May 15, Chezzi shared pictures of her hospital stay, along with a caption detailing her turbulent health battle. 'Four years ago, after the arrival of my beautiful little Sunday, I didn't rest as I should have after my caesarean,' she started the post. 'Pushing myself too soon caused a hernia in my abdominal wall and left me with a 2cm abdominal separation from top to bottom,' an injury which stripped away her core strength and pelvic floor control. In the post, Chezzi shared pictures of her hospital stay with a caption detailing her health battle over the past few years The result was layers of scar tissue around her third C-section scar and nerve damage that seemed impossible to fix. But despite the pain, the mother-of-three carried on, maxing herself out with family duties and not taking time to rest. 'When Sunday was in her full body cast, I carried her 20+ kilo little body around for hours on end, rocking her day in and day out for months. 'My instinct to mother her overrode my own physical pain, and I did more damage. The hernia opened up again, and a new one formed lower down.' Years of pain led Chezzi to take the needed steps to fix the problem, which would include a demanding and lengthy surgery, as well as a six-week recovery process. 'Last Friday, I underwent a 7.5-hour operation to rebuild me. I woke up feeling like I'd been hit by a Mack truck,' she said. 'I've had physio just to deep breathe again, and I'm rocking some gnarly-looking drains. But I am home.' She then went on to thank her husband for 'holding it together' through the surgery's aftermath, saying she was in 'awe' of him. 'I've got three little emotional girls who are so happy to have their Mumma back -albeit a bit grossed out by me and my friends, the drains.' The Aussie star then revealed why she decided to be transparent about her health journey on social media. 'So many of you have been with me through the entire motherhood journey. We're friends. A community. It matters to me. 'I'm home, I'm healing, and I'm grateful,' she ended off the post.

Last year, Chezzi announced that she had experienced a spiritual awakening and was ready to start work as a medium. The wife of Grant Denyer recently studied at Arthur Findlay College in Essex, England, a residential institution which describes itself as, 'The World's Foremost College for the Advancement of Spiritualism and Psychic Sciences.' In an Instagram post in September, Chezzi revealed that she is embracing her new, open-minded life. Chezzi went on to describe her 'profound' studies at the college, which is described as offering 'facilities unequalled anywhere in the world in the spiritualist movement'. 'My time at Arthur Findlay College had so many profound moments that I'm yet to process... and of course, then share here.. but I am just so invigorated right now to get a greater conversation happening around self-acceptance' Chezzi said. 'Every time we choose a path of love over fear, we not only help ourselves grow but we help others simultaneously. And throughout my mediumship studies the most powerful messages from our loved ones strongly reinforce this.'
