Lydia Bright has shared the frightening experience of her five-year-old daughter, who was rushed to A&E and spent nights in hospital after experiencing breathing issues.
The 34-year-old former TOWIE star told her social media followers that her daughter had a tough night in A&E when she was hospitalised with the health scare and the reality star wanted to share the experience with her followers.
Lydia wrote: "Things got a lot worse than my story earlier on in the week. Not the place I planned to spend my birthday weekend. However, I am just grateful that my little lady is now recovering in the children’s ward after a very tough overnight in A&E.”

Instagram)The TV personality also spoke about the care that her daughter received in hospital and praised the NHS despite being "far from perfect". She told her followers that her daughter, Loretta, has been requiring assistance from the NHS for her health problems recently and gave thanks to those who looked after her in hospital.
Lydia said: "I know the NHS is far from perfect, and we are reminded of the downfall constantly in the press. But it’s good to remind ourselves that there are people who don’t have access to healthcare at all." She added: "I’m so thankful for the care this hospital has provided over the past couple of years, with Loretta’s breathing issues, and let’s not forget the broken leg. We have been here a lot, praying for fewer visits in the future, kid."
Lydia showed that she had taken a book to hospital to read to her daughter, and she shared a page from the book with her followers. She read: "Before you complain about school, remember that some people can't even get an education. Before you complain about getting fat, remember that some people don't even have any food.
"Before you complain about your job, remember that some people don't even have any money. Before you complain about cleaning the house, remember that some people don't even have any shelter.
"Before you complain about washing the dishes, remember that some people don't even have any water."
This was the second birthday in a row that Lydia's daughter has been hospitalised after she fell from a trampoline and fractured her leg during her fourth birthday party. Lydia rushed the little one to the hospital before they had a chance to say goodbye to anyone and Loretta ended up in a cast.
Lydia praised her little girl afterwards, as she posted a black-and-white of her daughter throwing two thumbs up as she sat in a hospital wheelchair with her right leg in a cast outside the Outpatient X-ray section of Whipps Cross Hospital in Leytonstone, in February last year.
