Rylan Clark has been flooded with well-wishes to pass on to his mum after revealing she had been rushed to hospital. The BBC Radio 2 host made a statement after a period of silence on social media.
He shared how he would not be able to host his BBC Radio 2 show over the weekend as Linda, 71, was not "in the best of health." Rylan, 34, said in a message on Instagram on Friday (September 1): "So unfortunately I took my mum away on her first holiday in a good few years and sadly she's had quite a bad fall, resulting in her having to have surgery out here.
"She's not in the best health with her other conditions and this has made it more complicated." He went on to say: "My priority at the moment is my mum."
