Ex On The Beach star Jemma Lucy has revealed she was rushed to hospital with painful symptoms and may have to undergo surgery.
The media personality, 35, shared a photo of herself lying in a hospital bed and wrote: ‘Constant wait wait wait wait’.
In a video uploaded to her Instagram Stories, Jemma expressed her frustration at having to wait around to be seen by doctors.
The star did not say why she was in hospital but told how she was in pain and might have to have surgery.
She explained: ‘I can’t lie, the whole slagging off the NHS is one thing, I don’t like to do it but they are long. It’s like they want you to be in the most worst critical condition before they do anything.
‘I’m in a fair amount of pain on and off but because I’m not in excruciating, dying pain, I’m waiting. I just feel like I’m waiting to be in that pain, it’s inevitable, before I have surgery or whatever else the next steps are.
‘There’s a few next steps and I’m hoping I don’t have to have surgery. I guess I just have to wait to be in less pain.’
Jemma was in the hospital by herself and, answering a fan question, said she prefers it that way.
She mentioned that her boyfriend Nicholas Sinclair offered to come with her but she told him she’d rather be alone.
She wrote: ‘It’s my choice, I prefer to do these things alone so I can zone out and just deal with it. Nick wanted to come but I said no.
‘Is that weird? Like I just prefer to be alone but feel like no one gets that.’
MailOnline has contacted representatives of Jemma Lucy for comment.
Jemma and Nicholas, 29, regularly sharing racy snaps to their social media pages.
Nicholas was previously in a relationship with Made In Chelsea star Ruby Adler, who broke down in tears as she discussed their breakup on a recent episode of the show.
The news was first revealed in September that the reality star, 27, had gone her separate ways from the convicted drug dealer.
The E4 reality show, which is filmed months ahead of time, showed the moment Ruby told her pal Olivia Bentley that she had split from Nicholas.
She said: ‘My boyfriend and I have broken up. We’d built a home together and we had all these great plans. As much as it hurts I do wish the best for him still.
Liv said: ‘Break ups, they are f***ing hard. I know it feels like your world is crashing down and the pain will never go and I promise it’s only temporary every day it’ll get easier and easier, honestly.’
Reflecting, Ruby replied: ‘I know, I will get there. I guess on top of all this Bella has asked to meet me, I don’t really know where we’re at. I hope that Bella doesn’t think that because I’m single now that Rez is going to be an issue.’
Ruby initially claimed that Nicholas had cheated on her with Jemma, however she later confirmed there had been no overlap.
Posting to her Instagram Story, Ruby said: ‘On reflection on my last post I shouldn’t have said what I said, especially so publicly.
‘I should have handled things differently and I’m just processing a really hard break up and I very much retract what I said about @nicholas._.sinclair & @jemlucy_link’
She continued: ‘I don’t believe there was cross over, and I posted that in haste after receiving some very strange messages. And I’m just hurting.
‘We had a year long very loving relationship and I wish him all the best. Please leave both of them alone and respect all parties. Thank you.’
On her own account, Jemma replied to a question during an Instagram Q&A, which said: ‘Why does Ruby think you slept with Nick when they were together?’
Answering this, Jemma wrote: ‘I don’t know but on my whole family’s life I didn’t, she didn’t even speak to me about it before she posted.’
