Love Island‘s Jack Fowler has revealed he was recently rushed to the hospital over a terrifying health scare.
The 23-year-old shared a photo of himself in a hospital bed and hooked up to an IV on his Instagram Stories.
He thanked his followers for checking in on him, as he admitted it was “crazy” how many DMs he had gotten as he had been absent from Instagram for a few days.
“Here’s an update. Unfortunately, I was rushed to hospital Tuesday morning with severe headaches and lack of vision,” he continued.
“I then had a lumbar puncture that showed I had viral meningitis. I was unresponsive for a few days whilst being under morphine and several antibiotics.”
He added that he is “now on the road to recovery,” assuring his fans that he is now home and resting up.
Fans took to social media to share their well wishes for the Love Island 2018 fan favourite.
