Get well soon.

Gaz Beadle has revealed that his wife Emma McVey has been rushed to hospital and is undergoing heart surgery. The operation is to fix three holes in her heart and will take up to three months to recover. Sharing the news on Instagram, the Geordie Shore star said: "Very hard very stressful very emotional day. Crazy what life throws at you sometimes. "Big day for our family tomorrow." Gaz then went on to explain that Emma had waited hours to get into a ward and her biggest concern while there was about the couple's children. “You know what shout out to all the mums, honestly Emma was literally waiting to go in at 7am this morning..,” Gaz said. “After we dropped her last night, and her only worry was the kids were ok and that they had found their treasure hunt surprises which she has planned everyday for them….”

Gaz continued: “Mums are built different, nothing else matters, as long as their kids are happy.

“I will hold the fort and update you all soon as I hear from the doctors that all has gone well.

“Going to be a hard two to three month recovery but we got this as a family… thanks again for all the messages.”

Emma has suffered with a heart defect since she was born and also suffers from an inflammatory condition called colitis. The couple share two children together, a five year old son Chester and a two year old daughter Primrose.
