Stacey Solomon reveals ‘real reason’ behind hospital dash after ‘scary’ symptoms
STACEY Solomon has revealed the reason she was hospitalised on her luxurious family holiday.
The mum-of-five was placed on oxygen and hooked to an IV drip after her temperature soared on the last day of the trip.
She said how Joe Swash was so worried about how unwell she looked that he rushed to get her sister who was also on the lavish holiday.
"So my sister comes in the room and I know it's something serious when my sister comes in the room," she told fans.
"She's a nurse, she wouldn't bother, she's very much like 'you're fine' unless you're not fine," she laughed.
She told fans that every time her sister checked her temperature she went quiet - and that's when she knew something was wrong.

She's now updated fans on her well-being and explained the reason for her sudden health decline.
Cuddling up with Peanut and Teddy the dogs, she said: "Thank you all for your kind messages. I'll be back to life soon loads of you asking what it actually was I rambled on for five minutes & still didn't say."

Stacey's return to social media comes after going quiet since whisking 20 members of her family on a "dream" trip.
"We had the worst exit to Jamaica of all time," she told fans.
"I can't get over what's happened because it doesn't feel real in my head."
Explaining what she's been through, Stacey said: "I love you all for checking in and sorry for not coming straight back on.
"I'm one of those people who's like, 'I'm fine', then I end up in hospital in Jamaica.
"It is what it is, I just need to rest my body.
"I don't ever want to feel like that again because it actually scared me a little bit."
She added: "I'm going to listen to my body and let myself get well. I'll just have to have Christmas decorations up in February.
The TV star also told other fans who might be struggling with seasonal sickness that it's important to rest.
"Note to self it's ok to look after yourself and do things slowly," she said.
"I'm going to listen to my body and let myself get well, I'm just going to have to have the christmas decorations up until Febuary - i'll be that weirdo!"
