In a frightening turn of events, professional footballer Bradley Dack was rushed to hospital after collapsing during a gym session, leaving his reality star wife Olivia Attwood terrified.
The Blackburn Rovers midfielder, 30, suffered a sudden medical emergency while working out, requiring immediate medical attention. Attwood, who found fame on Love Island, promptly left her work commitments to be by her husband's bedside.
The couple's spokesperson confirmed the alarming incident, stating: "Bradley was taken to hospital after falling unwell at the gym. All necessary tests were conducted, and he has since been discharged home to recover."
Dack, who has faced significant injury challenges throughout his career, including two devastating ACL tears, now faces another health setback. The athlete's physical condition has been a constant concern since his serious knee injury in 2019 that sidelined him for extensive treatment and rehabilitation.
Despite the scare, insiders report Dack is "recovering well" at home with Olivia providing constant care and support. The couple, who tied the knot in a luxurious ceremony last year, have faced numerous challenges together, with this health emergency being the latest test of their relationship strength.
Friends of the pair have expressed relief that the situation wasn't more serious, noting that Bradley's fitness levels and athletic background likely contributed to his ability to handle the medical episode. However, the incident has raised questions about the intense physical demands placed on professional athletes even during off-season training periods.
The football community has shown overwhelming support for Dack, with fans and fellow players sending well-wishes for his speedy recovery. This health scare comes at a crucial time for the midfielder as he prepares for the upcoming football season.
