Amy Childs of The Only Way Is Essex was sent to A&E on Monday night after her son Billy suffered a health scare.
Amy, 33, described how she and fiancé Billy Delbosq had to take the eight-month-old to hospital because he was ‘struggling to breathe’.
The reality TV star wrote in an Instagram Story post: ‘Thank you for all your messages about baby Billy, sadly we ended up in A&E last night waiting eight hours to be seen.’
‘Bill’s coughing got worse and was struggling to breathe,’ she added.
Amy continued: ‘As a mum I was so worried as when he was a few minutes old when he was born he got taken away and put in the NICU unit for days as he was struggling to breathe.
‘Last night we got told after eight hours by the doctors that he has tonsilitis.’
‘He is OK this morning, just so worrying about his breathing and coughing. Just lots of cuddles with mummy and daddy today,’ she said.
‘My darling Billy,’ Amy wrote, insisting she and Billy ‘100 percent need some sleep.’
Amy’s recent post comes after she celebrated National Twin Day on Instagram with some adorable photos.
Billy and his twin sister Amelia were born in April to the TV celebrity and her other half.
Announcing their birth, Amy previously posted alongside some hospital pics: ‘Welcome to the world our beautiful little twins. Born 06/04/23 7.04pm twin 1.
‘7.05pm twin 2. Mummy and Daddy love you so so much.. We’ve been in a complete baby bubble the past few days.. Our family is now finally complete.. 🥰 @billydelbosq8 you have been incredible the last few days .. I love you so much .. 💙💗 xxx.’
Amy’s labour was ‘long and arduous,’ according to insiders at the time, and her manager subsequently revealed that she was now the mother of twins.
A close friend revealed: ‘Amy’s welcomed boy and girl twin babies. She’s overjoyed, but exhausted after a long labour.’
Amy recounted in her ITVBe programme, The Twin Life, how baby Billy was hospitalised with fluid in his lungs immediately after delivery.
The infant was admitted to the neo-natal facility for two days before being discharged.
