The 34-year-old former Married at First Sight bride shared a video on Saturday in which she revealed that she felt as if 'her body was coming apart 'after having two children 'back-to-back'. Lizzie, who has a 18-month-old daughter, welcomed her second child, a baby boy, in April. Her postnatal health issues include a 'bad back, bad neck', anal fissures and haemorrhoids.

'But I am feeling as if I'm falling apart physically I tell you,' she explained and added that he neck and back were 'a mess'. She continued: 'After carrying two big babies back to back I feel as if my arse**** is a mess. I'm talking fissures and haemorrhoids.' Lizzie added she had a message for women who endured similar health issues after giving birth. 'Don't act like you don't know if you've carried big babies before,' she said. 'Don't act like you don't know. Or if its not like a thing. Um yeah.' According to the Babycenter site, anal fissures - small tears in the anal passage - in postpartum women are common. Still, Lizzie appeared to have a sense of humour about her condition. She joked on her post that the auto captions on her video had translated 'fissure' into 'fishes'. 'Loving the time with my babies but I could do without the feeling as if my body is going to fall apart,' she added. 'And yes I eat enough fibre thank you very much.' The former reality TV star is happily married to her engineer husband Alex Vega (pictured), and is mum to an 18-month-old baby girl and a newborn baby boy who was born in April Followers messaged Lizzie with words of support.

My last baby was 6 yrs ago and I've still got them!!!!!,' messaged a third user. Elsewhere in Lizzie's post she referred to another health issue she experienced later her pregnancy. In February Lizzie shared gruesome photos that showed that her right eye was swollen shut. After first believing the problem was conjunctivitis, Lizzie said she was alarmed to learn from doctors her eyelid was infected by cold sores. On Saturday, she said that was not sure that her eyelid had healed properly. 'It probably did but I feel as if there's something in there. Something grainy. I just want to rip it out,' she said in her update. Lizzie was famously fat-shamed by her first Married At First Sight groom Sam Ball on season 2019 of the show. She and Seb Guilhaus hit it off immediately during her second showing on MAFS in 2020, and stayed together after the show, before parting ways in 2021. The former reality TV star is now happily married to her engineer husband Alex.

Home and Away star Tammin Sursok shares horrific health scare photos after stepping in ant nest
Tammin Sursok revealed the horrific allergic reaction she had to ant bites this week, sharing a shocking video of her swollen ankle to Instagram. The Australian actress, 41, told her followers on Saturday she accidentally stepped on a fire ant nest and gotten bitten seven times. Suffering a severe reaction, the Home and Away star broke out in painful looking blisters as her ankle swelled up to almost three times its size. 'In another episode of Tammin is allergic to bugs and insects, the ant bite situation has been gnarly... I stepped on an ant nest. Got bitten by seven,' she said. 'Ran into my house and yelled at everyone, "Don't be worried. I'm taking off all my clothes."' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Tammin then went on to post a poll to her Stories, asking her followers if they wanted to see a photo of the allergic reaction she had to the ant bites. It would appear the majority of her fans said yes, as she posted the shocking image just moments later. 'Fire ants are no joke! Swelling has gone down thank goodness! They are all the way around [her ankle],' Tammin captioned the image. The photo saw her ankle looking very red and swollen with several large blisters marring the skin. It comes just a few months after Tammin revealed a shock health update after she visited her doctor for a routine check-up following a spider bite. The Australian actress was bitten in March and visited her GP the following day to undergo a standard examination. But the former Home and Away star's routine trip to the local medical centre soon turned harrowing when her doctor found something 'unexpected'. The saga began when Tammin, who is based in Nashville, Tennessee, told her Instagram followers she had been bitten. Sharing an image of a tiny raised bump on her arm, she said: 'You'd think because I'm from Australia I'd know about spiders. 'One just bit me. It's so painful. Do I just do the ring around the spot and watch it?' Tammin appeared unconcerned by the bite as she already had a routine check-up scheduled with her doctor for the following day. She shared an update as she sat in the waiting room at her GP, showing the bite had become very red. 'Spider bite update. Went to bed thinking it's gone away. Pain slightly better. This morning...' she wrote alongside a shocked emoji. But the news soon got worse for Tammin just a few hours later when she spoke with her doctor and learned they found something 'unexpected' during her check-up. Assuring followers the health concern was unrelated to the spider bite, Tammin said she underwent an ultrasound to investigate it further but is yet to receive the results. 'Found out some news at the Dr that was unexpected. Thinking positively but please keep me in your good thoughts,' she said alongside a selfie. 'Always advocate for your health. Ask for second opinions. Trust your gut.' Tammin later uploaded a video to her Stories as she sat in her car after the doctor's visit. 'So, I just got back from the doctor's. I was having my routine yearly exam. Very important,' she said. 'While that was happening, nothing to do with the spider, they found something a little unexpected. I ended up getting an ultrasound. 'Don't really know much more than that. Just being super positive. Thank you for asking. I'm just not going to share anything until I have anything to share.' The Pretty Little Liars star finished her video with: 'I'm just hoping everything is all good. Lots of positive thoughts.' Tammin currently lives in Nashville with her husband Sean McEwen who she married in an Italian ceremony in 2011. The couple share two daughters—Phoenix, 11, and Lennon, five.

Adele Roberts shares concerning health update as she posts hospital snap - three years after all clear from cancer battle
Adele Roberts has shared a worrying health update as she posted a snap from hospital. The TV and radio star, 46, underwent surgery for bowl cancer in October 2021, later undergoing chemotherapy treatment and getting a stoma and announcing she had been given the all-clear in June 2022. However, three years after overcoming cancer, Adele took to her Instagram stories on Thursday to reveal she's undertaking blood tests as her iron count is low. Sharing a beaming image of herself and partner Kate Holderness in the waiting room of the cardiology department, Adele explained: 'Having a blood test today for my anaemia. Hopefully this one will go well and I will get more medication. 'We're not sure why my iron count is low... either damage to my blood from chemo or due to having a stoma. Without my medication I have no energy. I'm not running at the moment and I'm so tired all the time.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She added: 'Hopefully I'll get some more medicine once my GP has seen today's results... otherwise I'm going to be consistently falling asleep until I die.' The star later uploaded another image of herself with plasters on her arms from where the needles had been inserted. Shortly afterwards, she told how she initially discovered she had anemia amid her former bid to take part on Dancing On Ice, with the show's doctor recognising she had a problem with iron in her blood after she confessed to a habit of crunching ice with her teeth. Back in January, Adele opened up on the gruelling side effects of her chemotherapy as she revealed the treatment removed her finger tips. She's currently in remission but her journey fighting the condition left the DJ with some unexpected side effects as she revealed to Monday Mile Podcast that the treatment also caused black spots on her tongue. Adele told the show: 'Chemotherapy is different with every single person. And with me, it really affected my skin. 'So it took my fingerprints off. I couldn't use my fingers, I couldn't use touch screens, I couldn't use my phone, self-checkouts, things like that. 'It really damaged the bottom of my feet - it looked like they'd been burnt or something like that. It also turned my tongue black. She told how she initially discovered she had anemia amid her former bid to take part on Dancing On Ice, with the show's doctor recognising she had a problem with iron in her blood a 'I had these black spots on my tongue. So instead of being pink, like an intestine, she was like dark purple and it was almost like treacle would come out of it. 'It was a lot, it was a mess. I used to think if the chemo is doing this to me, imagine what it's doing to the cancer. And I made sure that I stayed active all the way through my chemo. 'And I just used to visualise all of the chemotherapy going through my body and killing any cancer cells. And it was like a way for me to stay strong mentally. Movement and visualisation, that's what I did.' Adele was first diagnosed with bowel cancer in October 2021 and documented her treatment on social media, which included colostomy surgery to remove a bowel tumour and having a stoma bag fitted. Nine months after being diagnosed, and after receiving chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment, Adele was declared cancer free, and now lives with a stoma bag, which she has named Audrey. The Dancing On Ice star previously disclosed that she felt 'accountable' for her cancer scare and felt 'she was being punished for something'. She said: 'I totally thought that I had caused it [the cancer]. My first thought was 'Am I going to die?'. But once he [the doctor] said he could help me, it's all I held onto. 'And when he said it wasn't my fault that's when I just cried and got so emotional.'

Adele Roberts shares worrying health update as she posts hospital photo after cancer battle
ADELE Roberts shared a worrying health update as she posted a hospital photo following her cancer battle. The radio presenter, 46, was diagnosed with bowel cancer back in 2021. 4 After chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment, she was later declared cancer free. Taking to Instagram, Adele shared a new health update with her followers. She posted in her story: "Having a blood test today for my anaemia. "Hopefully this one will go well and I will get more medication. "We're not sure why my iron count is low... either damage to my blood from chemo or due to having a stoma. "Without my medication I have no energy. I'm not running at the moment and I'm so tired all the time. "Hopefully I'll get some more medicine once my GP has seen today's results... otherwise I'm going to be consistently falling asleep until I die." Adele first suffered cancer symptoms on I'm A Celebrity in 2019, although she was not diagnosed until 2021. The DJ previously told the Monday Mile podcast about how chemotherapy removed her fingerprints. Adele said at the time: 'Chemotherapy is different with every single person. 'And with me, it really affected my skin. Adele Roberts 'looks like she's been run over by a tractor' as she shows off marked stomach after Dancing On Ice finale 'So it took my fingerprints off. I couldn't use my fingers, I couldn't use touch screens, I couldn't use my phone, self-checkouts, things like that. 'It really damaged the bottom of my feet - it looked like they'd been burnt or something like that. 'It also turned my tongue black. I had these black spots on my tongue.' The radio presenter now lives with a stoma bag, which she has named Audrey. Last year, Adele revealed the real reason why she hasn't married her partner of 20 years. What are the red flag warning signs of bowel cancer? IT'S the fourth most common cancer in the UK, the second deadliest - yet bowel cancer can be cured, if you catch it early enough. While screening is one way of ensuring early diagnosis, there are things everyone can do to reduce their risk of the deadly disease. Being aware of the signs and symptoms of bowel cancer, spotting any changes and checking with your GP can prove a life-saver. If you notice any of the signs, don't be embarrassed and don't ignore them. Doctors are used to seeing lots of patients with bowel problems. The five red-flag symptoms of bowel cancer include: Bleeding from the back passage, or blood in your poo A change in your normal toilet habits - going more frequently for example Pain or a lump in your tummy Extreme tiredness Losing weight Tumours in the bowel typically bleed, which can cause a shortage of red blood cells, known as anaemia. It can cause tiredness and sometimes breathlessness. In some cases bowel cancer can block the bowel, this is known as a bowel obstruction. Other signs include: Gripping pains in the abdomen Feeling bloated Constipation and being unable to pass wind Being sick Feeling like you need to strain - like doing a number two - but after you've been to the loo While these are all signs to watch out for, experts warn the most serious is noticing blood in your stools. But, they warn it can prove tricky for doctors to diagnose the disease, because in most cases these symptoms will be a sign of a less serious disease. The star admitted her concerns when quizzed about what she might wear if they were to marry Kate Holderness, who she has been in a relationship with since 2004. Adele said: "This is the reason I've not got married, because I don't know what to wear - I'm being serious. Clothes really overwhelm me. "Kate has to pick her moments when she takes me shopping because I just get really overwhelmed with choice. "And so if you came to my house you'd see Kate's rail - which is like beautiful and it's all the colours of the rainbow - and mine is just black, black, black, black, black - and maybe one white top."

Eamonn Holmes makes heartbreaking confession as he posts update on his health
EAMONN Holmes' loyal fans have urged the broadcaster to "keep fighting" after he posted a heartbreaking health update. It came as the 65-year-old vowed to "redouble my efforts" to walk again after he has been confined to a wheelchair of late. 6 6 6 Eamonn 's wellbeing was also a cause for concern after he opened up on the horror injuries he suffered while falling off a chair during his GB News Breakfast Show slot. Now the former This Morning anchor has taken to his page on X to upload a snap from 2022, showing him standing tall and looking svelte in a suit. Behind him, a silver DeLorean car with the registration plate ANZ 2047 was parked up. In his bittersweet caption he wrote: Great picture popped up from 3 years but it's made me sad - I could walk." The GB News anchor added: "Got to redouble my efforts." One fan was quick to offer positive vibes and wrote: "Keep pushing forward, Eamonn. Perseverance always pays off. "Wishing you strength, good health, and all the very best ahead." Another urged: "Keep fighting Eamonn," as a third put: "Stay strong Eamonn, you can do it, believe!" One cheerily posted: "Wolf whistle still got it Eamonn." TOUGH TIME It has been a painful time for Eamonn of late - who is also in the midst of a divorce from ex Ruth Langsford, 65, and a battle over their £3.6million home. The presenter, 65, ended up on his back on set just two weeks after he was rushed to hospital in another fall. He was hailed as a "trooper" by his colleagues - who praised him for keeping calm and carrying on. Speaking at the end of the show, Eamonn told viewers: "The chair gave way and I was lying flat on my back with my head hanging off the set. "The first hour or so I was OK because the adrenaline kicked in, but then as the morning went on I felt the aches and pains. Ruth and Eamonn's relationship timeline Before the shock split announcement, Ruth and Eamonn seemed like one of the strongest couples on UK TV – even with their signature bickering style. Here's how their romance played out... 1997 - The couple first meet after being introduced by mutual friends, two years after Eamonn splits from his first wife, Gabrielle, with whom he has three children. 1997-2002 - To be respectful to Gabrielle, the couple kept their relationship out of the limelight. Ruth told Daily Mail: "I thought it spoke volumes about the sort of man he was, the sort of father he was and the integrity he had. It made me love him more, not less." 2002 - Ruth and Eamonn welcome their son, Jack, to the family. 2005 - Eamonn finalises his divorce with Gabrielle. 2006 - The pair begin to host Friday episodes of This Morning together. 2010 - Eamonn proposes to Ruth while at the Cheltenham Races, after asking Ruth's mother for her hand. June 2010 - Eamonn and Ruth marry at Elvetham Hall, Hampshire. 2016 - Eamonn undergoes a double hip replacement in the first of many health battles. June 2019 - On This Morning, Ruth and Eamonn say the secret to their happy marriage. Eamonn credits "compromise, consideration and lots of conjugal," while Ruth said it was "laughter and an equal marriage". November 2020 - Ruth and Eamonn are replaced on their regular Friday slot by Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary in a 'show shake-up'. December 202 1 - After a year of being moved to the bank holiday presenting slot, both Eamonn and Ruth left This Morning. January 2022 - Eamonn debuted on GB News, while Ruth stayed with ITV in her long-standing role on Loose Women. September 2022 - Eamonn undergoes spinal surgery after years of back issues including a trapped sciatic nerve. November 2022 - Eamonn falls down the stairs of his Surrey home with Ruth and breaks his shoulder, requiring a new operation. September 2023 - Eamonn has a spine and neck stretching procedure as part of his year-long recovery. May 2024 - Ruth and Eamonn announce they have split after 14 years of marriage and a 27-year relationship. September 2024 - Eamonn was spotted on a luxury holiday in Barcelona with his new girlfriend Katie Alexander. Ruth calls in a 'fierce' divorce lawyer. "The worst thing is that two weeks ago I was hospitalised for a similar fall in the same area, back of my neck, head and shoulders and that's all come back." He added: "We're going to have to replace the chairs because I'm not the only one to have fallen." HEALTH WOE Weeks before, he disappeared off his TV show again amid his split with ex Ruth. Eamonn had a double hip replacement in 2016 yet has been suffering from chronic pain since a follow-up spinal operation in September 2022. Added to this, in early 2021, Eamonn was rushed to hospital after suffering from "pain he's never felt in his life." In addition to his other health woes, Eamonn suffered a fall at his Surrey home - which he previously shared with ex Ruth - which left him with a fractured shoulder in 2023. In September 2023, he was seen eating ice cream in a mobility scooter while months later, he was spotted using a walking frame. Eamonn was seen with the latter as he attended the TRIC Awards in London, sparking concern when he said he was "not OK." Yet last year, he stood tall without his walking frame. 6 6 6
