After sustaining a haemorrhage at her home in London, Louise Thompson was sent to the hospital so that she could have surgery.
The former star of Made in Chelsea, who is now 32 years old, announced earlier this week that he had been brought under the care of medical professionals after being struck by a “unexpected scenario.”
The health and fitness enthusiast, who had many harrowing near-fatal experiences after giving birth to her son Leo-Hunter with her fiancé Ryan Libbey, 32, posted photographs from a ward with her followers on Instagram.
She wrote in the caption, “Oh, and without sounding too dramatic, tell everyone that you love them RIGHT NOW,” encouraging her followers to spend time with their loved ones and to express their affection for those around them.
After the event, Ryan provided an update for his fans on Instagram on Thursday night, stating that Louise had been sent to the hospital to be closely watched after she had haemorrhaging. He said this after the incident.
He said: ‘2023 started well for me and for my family.
‘Last Friday it got flipped on his head again. Louise haemorrhaged at home, again. Rushed to hospital for surgery and close monitoring for four days.
‘Louise is home now, stable and doing well. She’s a warrior!’
‘Leo has picked up impetigo from nursery. Dad is tired.
‘We were supposed to be landing in St Lucia now for a two week break.’
Louise reported that after the birth of her son, the infant spent his first weeks in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), while she spent even longer recovering in an adult critical care unit after giving birth to her son.
In updates that she has shared with her followers since the birth of her child, Louise has been candid about her struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and post-natal anxiety.
She explained that she was unable to have a ‘normal thought,’ was preoccupied with the concept of ‘death,’ and was terrified of everything in her home since she had the disease.

‘I couldn’t see, couldn’t smell, couldn’t talk… when I would talk I would panic because every word that came out of my mouth didn’t make sense,’ she said previously, admitting that she felt ‘not alive’ and that her brain ‘basically shut down.’
A lupus diagnosis and a possible case of Asherman’s syndrome are among the many physical side effects that Louise has experienced. Asherman’s syndrome is an extremely rare disorder in which adhesions form up inside the uterus.
As a result of her ordeal, Louise has related that she suffered from panic episodes that rendered her “half blind” for an hour, frequently burst into tears, and had no recollection of the first five months of her son’s existence. Moreover, she constantly burst into tears.
‘I want to cry because I was a totally CRAP parent. I really was and it wasn’t my fault,’ she said.
‘But it didn’t need to be that way. There was no connection, in fact I can’t even remember anything for the first five months of his life.’
