MARRIED At First star Luke Worley was rushed to hospital after his blood pressure dangerously spiked during a dramatic dinner party.

His exit wasn’t shown on camera, but his partner Jay appeared unconcerned as she told the rest of the cast he'd gone for a lie down.

Luke wasn't seen again at the dinner party, which saw arguments erupt over comments about Laura Vaughan and Arthur Poremba's relationship.

Luke was at the centre of the drama after saying his partner was so relaxed, he felt she wouldn't care if he got another girl's number.

As the pressure proved too much for the groom, Luke's blood pressure went sky-high.

He says he is now on medication for life after being checked at the hospital.

Speaking to Towie star Jordan Brook's podcast , Luke said: "I had to get rushed to hospital for my high blood pressure.

"I left the dinner party, but they made out I was just going to bed. I had to go to hospital.

"The doctors said it was stroke territory.

"I've never had it before, but the stress from the show caused my high blood pressure to be f***ed.

"I'm on tablets now. I've got to on tablets for the rest of my life now. "That's what the show's done to me."

Luke was later axed from the Channel 4 programme after a physical altercation between him and another husband.

Despite that, his relationship with 'wife' Jay is still going strong.

He wrote a sentimental post celebrating his partner, saying she "makes his heart burst".
