Loose Women star Gloria Hunniford previously spoke about how she was rushed to A&E with life-threatening sepsis.
The 84-year-old telly legend opened up in early 2023 about having kidney stones. As a result a stent was placed to help drain them.
But Gloria – who appears on the show’s panel today (July 9) – was then rushed to hospital after feeling unwell and had to undergo a second surgery to remove it. However, as she began to come around, she became transferred to another hospital because she had sepsis.

In a 2023 interview, Gloria said she felt like somebody had “put a tap” in her body and “drained all the energy”. Describing her experience, she told The Mirror: “The last thing [the doctors] said before I went to theatre was: ‘When I take this stent out you are going to feel so much better.’
“But the next thing I knew coming out of the anaesthetic, was a nurse saying to me: ‘Don’t worry, don’t panic. But we are having to transfer you by ambulance to a different hospital because we can’t get your blood pressure up.'”
