CBB star’s mum sparks concern as she reveals shocking update after emergency brain surgery
CELEBRITY Big Brother star Lauren Harries has sparked concern after her mum revealed she’s suffering from terrifying symptoms following emergency brain surgery.
The reality TV star underwent the emergency procedure last month after being rushed to hospital with a mystery condition.
Using Lauren‘s Twitter account, her desperate mum wrote: “Please help: Lauren has had a number of blackouts after which the right side of her face droops.
“This is incredibly scary for Lauren and us. She also has a consistent headache.
“Drs haven’t been able to explain what is causing these.
“Have you or someone you know been through this? Any ideas or help you could give will be so helpful.”
She added: “The NHS saved Lauren but they can’t find any answers for this and it is so scary when it happens.
“It happened again yesterday. Please help find out what’s causing these!”
Lauren has had a challenging recovery ever since ending up in ICU.
She caught Covid as well as two infections, which caused her to suffer breathing problems.
Katy has been sharing pictures of Lauren with fans – urging them to “pray” for her.
The reality star had to face her “worst nightmare” when her head was shaved for surgery.
Her friends and fans flooded the comments section in support, calling her a “fighter” and wishing her to “get better soon”.
The 45-year-old is best known for appearances as a child on TV shows including Wogan and After Dark.
The reality veteran was a Big Brother’s Bit On The Side regular for three years before entering the house herself for Celebrity Big Brother in 2013.
Her last TV gig saw her take part in Channel 4 show Naked Attraction in 2019.
The star was born in Surrey in 1978 and is the youngest of three children.
Lauren began making TV appearances in 1988 on Terry Wogan’s UK chat show, Wogan, when she was just 10-years-old.
As Lauren grew up, she believed she was gay, but by her early 20s she identified as transgender.
She started cross dressing in 1997 and in 2001, at the age of 23 underwent gender reassignment surgery.
