TOWIE’s Bobby Norris issues new update after revealing terrifying health scare which saw him rushed to hospital

by

Bobby Norris recently shared news about a frightening health issue that required a trip to the hospital.

On Tuesday, 39-year-old reality star from The Only Way Is Essex was taken to the hospital by ambulance. He posted a photo on Instagram showing himself on a stretcher.

I’m hearing that the reality TV star actually thought he was having a heart attack before dialing 999 a few days ago. The Sun reported on this, and it sounds incredibly scary! It just goes to show you never really know what someone is going through, and it’s so important to prioritize your health and seek help immediately if you’re experiencing any worrying symptoms.

On Saturday, Bobby shared a health update with his fans via a video message posted to Instagram from his hospital bed.

He said: ‘Day 74 in the Big Brother house, Big Brother house being hospital.

‘I’m ready to go home, you want your own bed, comfy little mooch.’

As he was making his was to a vending machine, he continued: ‘It’s all very rock and roll.

‘But on a real note, NHS are amazing, there’s so many incredible staff.

‘Been a couple of little issues but I won’t go into them here.

‘But I will say the majority are just amazing, kind people, angels.’

He wrote in his post, ‘I’m completely lost track of the day and time, but at least I know where the vending machine is – and that feels like a victory!’

It come after he shared the cryptic message with his followers from inside the ambulance.

Bobby, dressed in tracksuit bottoms and sneakers, didn’t say anything about what occurred at that moment.

In March, the TV personality shared a health update from the hospital following surgery for a lump he’d discovered on his testicle seven months earlier.

And he shared a post-surgery update on his Instagram where he spoke about being recovery.

Sharing a snap of himself in his bed wearing a hospital gown, Bobby was seen smiling at the camera.

He shared how much he enjoyed a simple ham sandwich and a cup of tea, saying it reminded him that the small joys in life are the most meaningful. ❤️

Bobby shared several photos, including what he was having for lunch and a peek at his preparations for surgery – he showed his compression socks, the consent form he’d signed, and even his room number.

I wanted to share a personal update with you all. It’s been about seven months since I first found a lump, and honestly, things aren’t going as smoothly as I’d hoped. It’s a tough situation, and I’m being as open as I can be about what’s going on.

In a social media post, he said: ‘I’m currently in hospital as I have to have an operation today.

A few months ago, I discovered a lump and saw my doctor, who sent me to a specialist for more tests. I was advised to monitor it for any changes.

I recently found a lump on my testicle and have been monitoring it. Unfortunately, it’s not good news, and I’m currently in the hospital having surgery to address it.

Bobby, a former cast member on TOWIE from 2012 to 2021, encouraged viewers to regularly check their bodies and see a doctor immediately if they notice anything unusual.

He emphasized that everyone, especially men, should regularly check their bodies for any changes. He explained that we’re the first to notice anything unusual, so self-exams are crucial.

It’s okay to seek medical attention. Many people, especially men, feel uncomfortable about going to the doctor and being vulnerable, but it’s important to overcome that hesitation.

Naturally, I’m anxious about this. The idea of having it exposed like a Babybel cheese is unsettling, but it needs to happen. Everyone, please take a good look at yourselves.

He wrote, ‘Don’t ignore any new lumps or unusual changes in your body and hope they disappear. Regularly checking your body is crucial for noticing anything different early on.’

If something feels off with your body, don’t wait – schedule a doctor’s appointment to get it checked out. You know your body best, so trust your instincts when something doesn’t feel right.

Bobby shared in August that he was getting immediate medical attention for a lump, just five weeks after having liposuction on all sides of his body.

The reality TV star recently went to the hospital after becoming upset while describing a homophobic assault that caused him to lose his dental veneers and required hospitalization.

A passerby hurled the abuse at Bobby in January and shouted ‘queer c***’ at Stratford tube station.

Oh my gosh, I just heard this on FUBAR Radio and I’m so worried! He actually said he’s been attacked twice in the last couple of years because of who he is! Can you believe it? He even ended up in the hospital once! It’s absolutely awful, and it just breaks my heart to think someone would do that to him. It’s just… unbelievable. I’m so glad he’s speaking out about it, but it’s terrifying to hear.

He discussed his latest health issue while appearing on the show Access All Areas with his co-host, Ellen Coughlan.

He explained that he was walking towards the entrance of Access All Areas in Stratford, in broad daylight, when a man approached him.

We’re using that term very lightly, and even though we don’t have censorship, I don’t want to cause offense. Let’s just say someone referred to me with a somewhat offensive, playful label starting with the letter ‘C’.

He recently revealed details of an assault that landed him in the hospital, saying he’s never discussed it publicly, though records of the incident do exist for anyone who might doubt his story.

Over the past couple of years, I’ve been assaulted twice in what people call hate crimes targeting gay people. I’m 38 years old, but I still feel embarrassed about it – one of the attackers actually knocked my dental veneers out, and some of them were found on the ground.

I tend to handle things privately, so I can laugh about it now, but being in the hospital wasn’t a laughing matter at all.
