Charlotte Crosby was rushed to hospital following her peaceful trip to the Maldives. The 35-year-old jetted off to the stunning island to bring in the new year with her fiancĂ©, Jake Ankers, and their kids Alba, three, and Pixie, 11 months. However, on the last day of their trip Charlotte revealed she had started to throw up and “felt so weak” before she was later hospitalised for her illness.
Taking to social media to update her fans, she said: “Our last day in the Maldives and I’ve bloody been throwing up and felt so weak. Pushed through and went on a dolphin trip this morning, but we didn’t see any. Gutted because I was so excited for Alba! There’s always next time!”
Although not long after this post, the Geordie Shore star shared an image of herself in a hospital bed wearing an oxygen mask. The worrying image was captioned: “Well this wasn’t on my bingo card.” Charlotte has yet to update fans on her health since arriving back in the UK earlier this week.

It comes after the mum-of-two was forced to defend herself from trolls online, after she pranked her followers with a snap of her 11-month-old daughter Pixi on the flight to the Maldives, the Mirror reports.
The couples flight out to the Maldives wad delayed, leaving them to entertain the 11-month-old inside the plane. Charlotte’s fiancĂ©, Jake decided to pick Pixi in the aisle of the plane, when she decided to grab onto the fire exit sign above her.
Taking to Instagram, Charlotte shared the images but edited her partner out of the snap to make it look like little Pixi was hanging from the sign all by herself.
Alongside the image was a sarcastic caption, as Charlotte joked: “We couldn’t find Pixi anywhere on the flight. We could just hear her laughing … then we looked up and she was HANGING from the exit sign. What’s she like these second children are wild!! Gunna have to watch her closely in Maldives or she might be off on the jet skis before Yano it.”
However, following the prank post, the reality star was flooded with messages from what she described as the “mam police” who were “losing their s***” in her Instagram messages after assuming the image of Pixi dangling from the fire exit sign alone was real.

Hitting back at the numerous spam comments, Charlotte explained: ” ‘Right we have landed in the Maldives wait until I tell you all the adventure it took to get here … BUT FIRST why have I been getting sooooo many messages of people kicking off at Pixi doing pull ups on the fire exit sign!
“Let the girl live for god’s sake!!!!!!! LMAO come on yous! You didn’t actually think that was real did you?
“I just photoshopped Jake out we were delayed for ages on the run way and bored! And couldn’t stop laughing at how Pixi looked like she was dangling herself! When I tell you the mam police have been losing their s*** in my inbox!”
