England icon Paul Gascoigne 'doing well' after collapse and trip to hospital

Paul Gascoigne's representative says the England football icon is 'doing well' and has returned home after a reported collapse and trip to hospital. Gascoigne was found 'semi-conscious' in the bedroom of his home and initially admitted to an intensive care unit, The Sun reported this weekend. The 58-year-old, nicknamed 'Gazza', has long been of concern among many supporters due to his well known battles with alcohol addiction and mental health struggles – although he did reportedly remain sober for three months over the summer. Gascoigne's representative has now provided an update on the man who helped lead England to the semi-finals of the 1990 World Cup and Euro 1996, widely considered one of the most talented players of his generation. 'Paul voluntarily went into A&E on Friday after struggling with a throat condition he has had for a while,' Carly Saward told the Associated Press. Saward, who works for the MNT talent agency, added: 'He is already back home and doing well.' Gascoigne is a legend for his country and a number of clubs he played for during his career – adored for his skill on the pitch and his personality off it. He is best known for his spells at Newcastle United, Tottenham, Lazio and Rangers and was capped 57 times by the Three Lions from 1988 to 1998. In March 2024, Gascoigne admitted he was a 'sad drunk' as he publicly opened up about his battle to stay sober. 'I used to be a happy drunk, I ain't anymore,' he said on the High Performance podcast. 'I'm a sad drunk. I don't go out and drink, I drink indoors. If I want to make it a bad day, [all I need to do is] go down the pub. 'If I want it to be a good day, I get my flying rod out and go fishing. It's not the drinking, it's the afterwards. 'Looking at my phone after and seeing 30 messages or missed calls, I know I'm in trouble. 'But I've been alright. Last year (2023) wasn't brilliant, was off and on for a couple of months.' More Trending England star fumes 'this is why I hate London' after his car is broken into In November 2024, Gascoigne revealed he had failed the psychiatrist test to appear on ITV reality show I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here five times, confessing that he was high on cocaine for one of the tests. 'You had to see a psychiatrist. If you pass the psychiatrist's test, you're in. I failed five f***ing times,' he told The Sun.

Seann Walsh 'in talks for I'm A Celeb All Stars return' after Strictly romance scandal

I'm a Celebrity... South Africa, known as All Stars, is said to be returning and there's speculation that a former Strictly Come Dancing star is in talks with ITV to appear on it A former Strictly Come Dancing contestant is said to be in talks to appear on I'm A Celebrity spin-off All Stars. Seann Walsh was a campmate in the jungle almost three years ago, but he's now reportedly considering a return. ‌ Seann, 39, was a late arrival on I'm A Celebrity in 2022. He entered the jungle in Australia alongside former politician Matt Hancock, and they later joined the main camp. The comedian went on to place fifth on the ITV show that year. ‌ He had expressed hope that his stint on the show would change public opinion following a scandal during his time on Strictly four years prior. Seann had been photographed kissing his dance partner, Katya Jones, on a night out in 2018, despite both being in relationships with other people. They both apologised at the time for their behaviour. ‌ It's now reported that Seann is in "advanced talks" to appear on the second series of I'm a Celebrity... South Africa is often referred to as All Stars. The show, which launched in 2023, is due to be filmed in South Africa again later this year. A source told The Sun: "When [Seann] went into the jungle in 2022, he very much did it in the hope of redeeming himself in the eyes of the viewing public." They said: "He managed to emerge as one of the more popular campmates and actually finished in a respectable fifth place in the contest." ‌ They went on to mention him having entered camp with Matt, who had himself made headlines over an affair with his aide, Gina Coladangelo. Speaking about Seann, the source said: "Part of the reason why he came across comparatively well was because he went into I'm A Celebrity with an even bigger love rat." Seann, who had been in a relationship with actor Rebecca Humphries when the scandal broke during his time on Strictly in 2018, previously said that his current partner, Grace Adderley, had encouraged him to do I'm A Celebrity. He said that she was the "main reason" he was doing it. He said in 2022: "As you can imagine, I was very scared after the last time I was on a big show because the fallout was not something you would want to go back to. Grace talked me into doing it. She convinced me it was the wrong attitude to have, not doing it because I feared what people would think, but to do it because I would have a wonderful time." ‌ Seann, who has said that the impact of the Strictly scandal led to him experiencing panic attacks, acknowledged prior to his stint in the jungle that people had opinions on him already. Seann, who now has a daughter with Grace, said he was "hoping" viewers would see that he is "very different". The I'm A Celebrity spin-off, which features the return of former campmates, launched two years ago. Myleene Klass won the debut series, after being runner-up in 2006, with Jordan Banjo and Fatima Whitbread also in the final. ‌ It's rumoured that the show will be returning for a second series, which is reportedly due to be filmed in South Africa later this year. There has been speculation about the potential line-up recently prior to the report about Seann. Harry Redkna pp and Gemma Collins are rumoured to be returning for All Stars. Former football manager Harry won I'm A Celebrity back in 2018, whilst reality TV star Gemma appeared on the show in 2014 but quit after just a few days.

A TV insider said: 'When he went into the jungle in 2022 he very much did it in the hope of redeeming himself in the eyes of the viewing public. 'Which was no mean feat given he'd been branded an aggressive gaslighter as a result of his fling with Katya and his treatment of his girlfriend.

The line-up for the show, likely to air in 2026, will also include former football manager Harry Redknapp, 78, who was crowned King of the Jungle in 2018, and The Only Way is Essex star Gemma Collins, 44, who was only on the show for three days in 2014.
