Mollie King finally breaks silence on weeks long absence after health scare

Mollie King, Radio 1 DJ just opened up about her major health scare that landed her in the hospital and hence led her to stop appearing on screen for a while.

She has now told fans how she was rushed to hospital after collapsing and losing consciousness. Explaining her recent absence from the airwaves, the popular BBC Radio 1 host revealed the details via a post on Instagram.

In her social media update, Mollie opened up about the reasons behind her two-week disappearance from her midday show, which she co-hosts with Matt Edmondson.

She penned, "Hi guys! So many of you have kindly messaged me over the past two weeks asking why I haven't been on air - thank you so much for checking in!”

Mollie further revealed, "After coming home late from work, I suddenly collapsed unconscious on the bathroom floor at 4am, hitting my head and face as I fell. It was a huge shock and I ended up being rushed to A&E."

However, the former singer added that she was "grateful" her fiancé, cricketeer Stuart Broad, was there.

"I keep thinking how grateful I am that I wasn't on my own and had Stuart to bring me round after I fell. A huge thank you to Amy and Hannah at St George's Hospital who were absolutely incredible, stitching me up so well, and even managed to see past the Looney Tunes pyjama top I arrived in (Must buy new pyjamas!),” reports The Mirror.

"It's been a real wake up call that I need to make some time to get my strength back, not just for my own health, but so I can be the best version of myself for my family too. Yesterday, was my first day doing anything social. After what has felt like a very long two weeks, it was amazing to get out and spend time with my girls,” she added.

"We even had the surprise of spitting Daddy on a big screen, which made us all smile." Mollie also posted a picture of herself with her daughter, looking at a big screen that had Stuart on it.

She also expressed gratitude to her fans, writing, "Thank you so much to everyone who has checked in on me, and for all the lovely birthday messages too. Your kindness has meant so much. I can't wait to be back on the radio with Matt today."
