Lauren Harries has sent an update to fans following emergency brain surgery.
Lauren, 45, who featured on Celebrity Big Brother in 2013, underwent a ’emergency’ procedure in April.
Lauren revealed gruesome photos of her bruised arms and hands earlier this month, and she has now assured followers that she is still in the hospital and that she loves them.
She wrote in a message shared on her Instagram Stories on Wednesday: ‘Hello my stars. Well I’m still in hospital.
‘Nearly dying makes you appreciate every moment. So enjoy the sunshine and know that I love you. Light, love and peace.’
Her post came just a day after Lauren’s mum Katy revealed her daughter had been having blackouts and suffering from a ‘drooping face’.
Katy described the incident as ‘very terrifying’ for her kid and sought help.
On the same day, Lauren’s hospital bed photo was uploaded on Instagram.
Taking to Twitter on Tuesday, doting mum Katy wrote: ‘Please help: Lauren has had a number of blackouts after which the right side of her face droops.
‘This is incredibly scary for Lauren and us. She also has a consistent headache. Drs haven’t been able to explain what is causing these.’
She added: ‘Have you or someone you know been through this? Any ideas or help you could give will be so helpful.
‘@NHSuk have saved Lauren but they can’t find any answers for this and it is so scary when it happens, it happened again yesterday. Please help find out what’s causing these!’
Lauren had emergency surgery last month, and she and her mother have kept followers updated on her status via social media since then.

On April 14, Katy issued another plea on Twitter asking people to pray for her daughter after the procedure, saying: ‘Please pray or send good thoughts to my precious daughter Lauren @LaurenHarries. Who is recovering from emergency brain surgery today.’
Lauren’s fans were notified a few days later that she was “under close watch” and suffering from “memory issues and confusion.”
She is also believed to have a ‘permanent headache’ while she continues to receive treatment and rehabilitation.
Lauren finished third on Celebrity Big Brother in 2013, trailing the winner, Charlotte Crosby, and the runner-up, Abz Love.
She has been on various television shows such as Celebrity Juice, Bodyshockers, and Naked Attraction.
