Bobby Norris Hospitalised After 'Intense Crushing Pains' Prompt Heart Attack Scare
Bobby Norris in hospital after chest pains spark heart scare

Former TOWIE star Bobby Norris has been admitted to hospital and is undergoing urgent medical assessments after suffering what is feared to be a suspected heart attack.

Ambulance Dash Following Chest Pains

The 38-year-old reality television personality caused significant alarm among his followers on Tuesday when he posted a photograph from the back of an ambulance. The image showed him strapped to a stretcher, with only his legs, clad in tracksuit bottoms and trainers, visible.

A source close to the situation revealed that the emergency dash to The Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow was triggered by the star experiencing 'intense crushing pains' in his chest, accompanied by difficulty breathing.

Tests and Terrifying Ordeal

Acting on medical advice, Norris called the NHS 111 service. Paramedics are said to have arrived at his Essex home within 20 minutes of the call, promptly transferring him to the hospital for immediate care.

'He is still currently being tested for a suspected heart attack and remains in hospital,' an insider confirmed. 'It’s been a terrifying time and he’s not sure what has caused his symptoms but is desperate for answers.'

Doctors and cardiology consultants are conducting a battery of tests to determine the root cause of his cardiac and chest issues. It is understood that Norris will remain under medical supervision for the 'foreseeable' future.

Second Health Scare This Year

This hospitalisation marks the second significant health scare for Norris in recent months. Earlier this year, the ITV star, who appeared on TOWIE from 2012 to 2021, emotionally disclosed that he had discovered a suspicious and sore lump.

In a tearful social media video from his hospital bed at the time, he urged his fans not to ignore such symptoms and to seek immediate medical attention. He subsequently underwent a successful operation to address the issue.

This latest incident has left friends, family, and fans deeply concerned for the television personality's wellbeing as he awaits a diagnosis.
