Rylan Clark's mother rushed to hospital with mystery illness
Rylan Clark has cancelled his Saturday radio show as he revealed to fans that his mother had been rushed to hospital. 'Mummy Linda isn't well sadly so I won't be hosting the show tomorrow,' the presenter announced in a post on social media on Friday night. He then thanked the emergency team who looked after his mother, highlighting that this was an urgent situation. 'Thank you to the emergency team at Princess Alexandra Hospital. Especially Tanya who really looked after my mum. 'Will keep you updated as she's on the mend. She's a trooper x,' he promised fans. Rylan updated fans but kept Linda's illness and symptoms private. The star was expected to host his BBC Radio 2 show on Saturday afternoons, which is his usual three-hour slot that sees him play music and chat to guests. Fans of the presenter have come to know his mother, Linda, after her numerous appearances with Rylan on Celebrity Gogglebox. Viewers loved her dry sense of humour and her quick quips and back and forth with her son. She first appeared on the show in 2019, but the duo took a break a few years ago because of Linda's health. In 2023, Linda had a horrific fall while on holiday in Marbella, suffering from a broken arm and leg during her first foreign holiday in 10 years. In 2017, Rylan revealed that his mother was battling Crohn's disease. 'My mum's had Crohn's disease and unfortunately something went wrong, so she's been in hospital for six weeks. 'They've looked after her so well, so I just want to say thank you and to people who have all been watching, she's very, very well, she's home now.' Years ago, Rylan spoke to the Daily Mail about how his mother was impacted by the disease: 'My mum lost her job because of the disease – it totally dictates her life. When she was diagnosed it really hit her hard because it wasn't picked up early enough. 'The earlier you pick it up, the easier it is to control. I grew up with the disease as well because she was ill – it is life-threatening. It's scary.' Earlier this week, Rylan and Linda appeared on This Morning and revealed that the Celebrity Gogglebox editors have had to cut out their 'career-ending' conversations. More Trending Linda told Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary: 'When he mucks about, I go, 'Please don't put that bit in.'' 'We're lucky that the editors clearly like us, because the stuff they've had to cut out is career-ending,' Rylan agreed. '[I say] 'Don't you dare say what I just said,'' Linda said. 'We're like, 'Yeah, can we not use that, please',' the Big Brother's Bit on the Side host laughed. Got a story?
