This Morning presenter Sian Welby has revealed that she rushed her baby daughter Ruby to hospital after a frightening health scare. The 39-year-old, who gave birth in June 2024 with her fiancé Jake Beckett, took to social media to share the ordeal.
Writing on Instagram, Sian explained that Ruby had a very high temperature and experienced febrile convulsions – described as extreme shivering with jerky movements. She said: 'It's quite scary and she's had them before, so we were told to go straight to A&E to have her checked over.'
The star thanked fans for their support and added: 'We're back home now and she's doing really well. Thanks so much to the doctors and nurses at St George's who looked after her and even gave her a teddy for being brave. We're so lucky to have the NHS.'
Sian, who also hosts Capital FM, has been open about her journey into motherhood. She recently spoke about balancing career and parenting, and advocated for extended paternity leave, noting that in some families the mother may be the primary earner.
