TV presenter Rylan Clark has melted hearts with a sweet birthday tribute to his beloved mother, Linda, as she celebrated her 73rd birthday. The emotional post comes just weeks after Linda was rushed to hospital due to undisclosed health concerns.
Taking to social media, the former X Factor star shared a series of nostalgic photos alongside a heartfelt caption: "Happy birthday to my beautiful mum. 73 years young and still my absolute rock. Love you more than words can say."
Fans Rally with Support
Followers quickly flooded the comments section with well-wishes, with many enquiring about Linda's health following her recent hospital visit. Rylan reassured fans that his mother is "on the mend" but didn't elaborate on the nature of her illness.
The mother-son duo have always shared an exceptionally close bond, with Linda frequently appearing alongside Rylan on his various television projects. Their relationship became particularly prominent during Rylan's stint on Celebrity Big Brother in 2013, where Linda's supportive messages became a highlight of his journey.
A Family's Health Journey
This isn't the first health scare the Clark family has faced publicly. In 2021, Rylan took a four-month hiatus from his BBC Radio 2 show to focus on his own mental health following his divorce from husband Dan Neal.
The 35-year-old presenter has since been open about the importance of family support during challenging times, often crediting Linda as his "biggest strength" through personal and professional ups and downs.
As Linda celebrates this milestone birthday, fans continue to send their love and best wishes for her full recovery.
