Lottie Tomlinson shares health update after being rushed to hospital for emergency surgery in Abu Dhabi
The influencer, 26, who is one of One Direction star Louis Tomlinson 's sisters, had flown to the country with her fiance Lewis Burton and their children.
But Lottie said she started to feel unwell on the plane there, with stomach pains getting worse before she eventually vomited.
After landing in Au Dhabi, Lottie went to see a doctor and was put on a drip - but when it didn't help the pain she was sent to hospital where it was discovered she had appendicitis.
Lottie was then rushed for emergency surgery to have her appendix removed and shared a clip explaining the scare from her hospital bed on Instagram on Thursday as she recovered.
And in the latest update, Lottie took to her Instagram Stories on Thursday evening and revealed that she has been discharged from the hospital.
Posting a photo from the back of a cab while holding hands with partner Lewis, she wrote: 'Out of hospital and on the way to the hotel to rest. Thank you all so much for the kind messages.'
She later shared a heartwarming image of Lewis with their two children in the pool, adding: 'Back where I belong. You make everything better.'
Just the day earlier, Lottie informed her follower that she 'didn't expect to start our trip like this.'
'So I didn't expect to start our trip like this but I'm just grateful that I'm recovering now,' she began. 'I felt quite ill on the way here, on the plane, really bad stomach pains.
'Then I started throwing up when I got here and long story short I went to the doctor and they put me on a drip - but it wasn't helping with the pain, the stomach pains.
'So they sent me to hospital where they discovered that I had appendicitis so I needed surgery straight away, so last night I had surgery to remove my appendix and it all went well, so I'm just now recovering.
'But I'm so grateful to all the nurses and doctors that have looked after me and I'm hoping that I can make a quick recovery.'
She captioned the clip: 'Thank you to all the lovely doctors and nurses here in Abu Dhabi.'
Lottie also shared a snap of Lewis sitting by her ward with their two-year-old son Lucky as they kept her company. The couple also welcomed their second child, a daughter called Flossie, in January.
'Hopefully I can make a speedy recovery and enjoy our last few days here,' she captioned the snap of Lewis and Lucky.
It comes after last month Lottie admitted her cosmetic procedures became a 'never-ending cycle' as she candidly opened up about using filler and having beauty treatments.
The influencer has had her lip and cheek filler dissolved and previously said she noticed the cosmetic procedures had 'got out of control'.
But in May Lottie revealed that she first turned to cosmetic treatments after 'losing her confidence' after her mum Johannah Deakin's death in 2016 at the age of 43.
She said she believes her mum 'sugarcoated' her diagnosis and she never realised 'how bad' she was until near the end.

Speaking to Giovanna Fletcher on her Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast, she revealed that becoming a mother herself has changed the way she views herself and given her her confidence back.
Lottie said: 'I felt like it was making me happy, you know? Losing the weight and feeling slimmer definitely made me feel better in myself.
'But in terms of the fillers and the beauty treatments, it was just a never-ending thing of trying to catch up with yourself.
'And, like, when you lose someone as close as your mum, it affects your confidence a lot.
'That's something I never expected, because if you think about it, your mum is the one person that cheers you on, that loves you unconditionally, that's there to give you that, you know, reassurance and support.
'So when you lose that, you kind of lose that, you know, confidence in yourself.
'So I think I was constantly chasing, trying to find that confidence, thinking I would find it in these, you know, fillers and how I looked.'

Five Great Reads: simple superfoods, Paul Foot, and the one universal sex tip
Happy Saturday! And happy one-week birthday to the Coldplay couple, who I promise to give no more airtime … after this. Now, with a cuppa in hand, please read on and enjoy five articles worthy of your time. In the latest of our How we survive series, Kelly Ghaisar shares the moment her 'lovely bubble' of living the American dream burst. She was told her 25-year-old son had been shot in his car, while unarmed, by two police officers. It's seven and a half years since Bijan's death, and Ghaisar is still fighting for her boy. Her hopes: To see the laws protecting the officers who killed her son repealed. How she survives: Ghaisar says her 'number one is Bijan', along with her friends and family. 'I will not stop fighting for Bijan, not while I still live and breathe.' How long will it take to read: Four and a half minutes. Nesrine Malik has visited Qatar many times over the past 15 years, and spoke to dozens of sources about its 'financial power and political determination' to write this incredible long read on how Qatar became the global capital of diplomacy. 'World's largest natural gas field': Despite being in the shadows of its larger neighbour Saudi Arabia, this tiny country – astonishingly wealthy thanks to pure geological luck – has helped tackle some of the most intractable conflicts. The 12-day war: 'On 22 June the US struck three nuclear facilities in Iran,' Malik writes. 'On 23 June, Iran launched missiles towards Qatar.' 'Peace facilitator': 'Yet within 48 hours, the conflict was over – and Qatar played a critical role in bringing it to an end.' But how? How long will it take to read: 13 minutes. Paul Foot spent decades suffering from anxiety and depression, until one Sunday, driving through Manchester, the British comedian's 'consciousness exploded'. In this interview he recounts the experience to Paula Cocozza – and Cocozza writes about Foot's trauma and his current state of profound joy in a very special way. 'It was a moment that was both extraordinary and ordinary' – like stirring from a dream. 'It was just, 'Oh, I've woken up …' And it didn't matter that I'd spent 28 years in a state of depression. It was gone. Everything was different.' – Paul Foot How long will it take to read: Five and a half minutes.

Gratification: While a woman's pleasure is 'specific and individual', Gorman found less variety after asking what women think 'their partner did to enable that one overwhelming moment'. The answer is simple, obvious and teachable. How long will it take to read: Three and a half minutes (unless you read the comments). Further reading: Roxane Gay introduces portraits of people with their sex toys around the world. Superfoods – a term used in the 1960s to describe foods combating malnutrition – now include a select few highly marketable items, most likely found in a health food store. That's what I thought until I stumbled across Rachel Dixon's list of 17 superfoods, which experts point out are probably waiting to be consumed in our pantries and fridges. I have seven at the moment … how about you? Ditch the goji berries: They 'need a lot of water, are often grown as a monoculture, and there are questions over fair wages for farmers', writes Dixon, after speaking to researchers Giulia Santunione and Giuseppe Montevecchi. Unglamorous alternatives: Go carrots, peas, oats or popcorn instead! How long will it take to read: Five minutes.

Harry Styles launches sex toys range in surprising career move as fans go wild
The One Direction star has urged his adult fans to 'please yourself like you mean it' with a sex toy launch which dropped this afternoon. Harry Styles has sent fans into a frenzy after it's been announced he is dropping his own range of vibrating sex toys and lubricants in a shock career move. The One Direction star is set to release the sex toys through his brand Pleasing, which he previously launched as a unisex pop up in 2021 selling nail varnishes. Pleasing has since expanded and has become an online shop with a permanent retail deal with Selfridges in London. The shop currently sells a range of perfumes, lip balms, tote bags, t-shirts, scarves and now sex toys. Teasing a new launch on the website, Pleasing had informed fans: "Something Pleasing, Coming Soon.' Pretty innocuous, right? This page is intended for individuals 18 years of age and older." The website then confirmed the launch later today with the message: "An invitation to please yourself like you mean it. Pleasing Yourself is the result of our radical pursuit of that which feels good. Two intimacy tools, The Pleasing Double-Sided Vibrator and the Pleasing Lube, that put pleasure exactly where it belongs, in your hands." The cheeky collection, which is called Pleasing Yourself, will become available today on July 25 with The Please Double-Sided Vibrator and The Pleasing Lube, which have been 'designed as an open invitation to explore that which makes you feel good.' Pleasing stated that the £68 double vibrator is 'as intuitively functional as it is aesthetically distinct' and perfect to stimulate 'wherever feels good, from erogenous zones to anywhere craving extra attention.' Meanwhile, the £25 silicone lubricant promises to offer 'long-lasting moisture and a silky glide with zero glycerin'. The brand states the items are intended to be used by people 18 years or older. Both products are available to pre-order now. Pleasing encourages fans to be the first to sign up to learn more about the launch by providing their contact information.

"On July 25th we'll be ready to give it to you online and in person at 251 Elizabeth Street, New York City." On social media, Pleasing also shared some promotional adverts which sent fans wild. The first post showed a business card for 'Something Pleasing' being slotted into a flip calendar. The caption read: "You forgot 251 Elizabeth Street N.Y.C. 25th of July." The second showed a clip of a finger tapping out Morse code on a Telegraph key with a glass of milk in the background. A woman is seen pressing her ear against a door and then gasps when the code finishes. The caption reads: "For those playing at home" with a New York address and a date for July 25- 27. A third video is of a woman dialling a phone. A mobile can then be heard vibrating on a couch before several other phones began vibrating, answered with a gasp or a moan. Finally, the shot cut to a red dial-up phone with what appears to be Harry's tattooed hand picking up the phone to answer the call. The caption says: "Say that again." His stylist Harry Lambert, who is als the brand's creative director, said: 'Pleasing Yourself is something we want our community to do — to love themselves, look after themselves, treat themselves, and please themselves. "Sexual wellness is such an important part of a person's overall well-being, and is something we're proud to embrace and speak about openly.' Fans rushed to social media to have their say on the launch. One wrote: "My bingo card did not include my first ever Harry Styles merch in 2025 being literal vibrators." Another chimed in: "Woah I missed a chapter Harry Styles is selling what now?" A third excited fan exclaimed: "Harry styles pleasing vibrator rumours got my kicking my feet (i will be buying it)!"

Katie Price flaunts her assets in a skimpy butter yellow bikini and wears a bizarre huge mirror visor while on the beach in Dubai
Katie Price flaunted her assets in a skimpy butter yellow bikini while on the beach in Dubai. The former glamour model, 47, jetted off to the United Arab Emirates last week to soak up the sun and was pictured on the beach last Friday. She flaunted her voluptuous figure in a halterneck butter yellow triangle two-piece, which featured white lace lining. Katie turned up the heat once again back in Dubai for her third trip out there, showcasing her ample curves and extensive tattoo collection. The TV personality was also seen wearing a bizarre and very large mirror visor on her head to shield her face from the sun. She strolled along the beach and relaxed on a sun lounger, before stepping into the water to go for a dip. It comes after Katie revealed what has got her through her 'painful' bum filler treatment as she opened up in a new video on Instagram on Thursday. Katie revealed that a bottle of CBD has been helping her 'get through' the awful time as she admitted that 'sitting on my bum' is causing her pain. Katie said: 'Bum filler update. As you can see I did a photoshoot today with Kerry and what got me through it was my CBD. 'Let me tell you why, I had my bum done two days ago and I've been feeling a bit uncomfortable in that area. 'So I've been taking this today to help with the pain and inflammation and at night sleeping. So it's been my best friend. So yeah, I've always said if anyone struggles with sleep, anxiety or pain this in my opinion is the way forward. 'What would I do without it, I know I'm going to have a goodnight sleep again tonight cause I'm going to put some drops in it and remember when you order this shake it load before taking it 'So yeah this has been a godsend because I got the train up and where I'm sitting on my bum walking and all of this, this has been a godsend, CBD oil all the way.' CBD oil, a cannabis-based product, particularly helps pain relief, anxiety reduction, and improved sleep but they are not licensed medicinal products and are not regulated for safety and quality. The former I'm A Celebrity star was then seen stepping into the water to go for a dip Katie captioned the post by gushing that the oil has been a 'massive help with her bum filler' and she is 'feeling more comfortable'. She wrote: 'Forgot to post this yesterday after the shoot but wow did I need my @supremecbd I've been so busy recently that I have been taking my oil out and about with me in my bag for if I get anxious or if I need to take a second to myself and calm down. 'Also it has been a massive help with the bum filler! I definitely do feel more comfortable after taking it and I sleep better. 'If anyone struggles with sleep, anxiety, aches or pains, fibromyalgia the list goes on! Give this a go you WILL NOT regret it'. Earlier this week, Katie returned from holiday in Dubai and headed straight to the beauticians for lip filler and bum filler. Sharing a video from the clinic, she said: 'I'm having filler done in my lips not to much though and having my bum done and after I'm getting the train back and taking Harvey to his new place.' The TV star went on to list the benefits of filler rather than undergoing a 'dangerous' BBL in Turkey. She continued: 'See if I had a BBL in Turkey they'd put me to sleep and it's more dangerous cause they use your own fat and this is just filler and I'm here for an hour and a half and go back home and carry on with my day.' Showing off her lips, she added: 'See I've not had my lips done to big today, gone a bit more classy'. In another clip, the star lay on the beautician bed showing off the results of the filler in her bottom as she wore a pink lace thong. She joked: 'BBL on your lunch hour'. Katie - who has previously admitted she suffers with body dysmorphia - is believed to have spent over £130k on cosmetic surgery over the years, with the model saying she has no plans to slow down.
