Sam and Billie Faiers' estranged father, Lee, has reportedly been hospitalised after suffering a heart attack. The 60-year-old was rushed to hospital last week, with a source describing him as 'lucky to be alive'.
The sisters, aged 31 and 32, have remained estranged from Lee since their parents separated when they were toddlers. According to reports, they were not informed about the health scare and remain in the dark.
A source told The Sun: 'Lee loves his girls. Whether they speak or not, they're still his daughters. You can argue about silly things, but the heart attack made him realise life is very precious.'
Last year, Billie praised their mother, Suzie Wells, for shielding them from 'very damaging' situations after their stepfather was jailed for drug and firearm offences. Despite the estrangement, the sisters maintained a close bond with Lee's mother, their nanny Wendy, who passed away in January 2021.
