Georgia Kousoulou shares baby daughter’s health update after ‘long and stressful’ week in hospital
Georgia revealed her sprog had spent a difficult week in the hospital battling bronchitis
GEORGIA Kousoulou has shared an update on her baby daughter’s health after a ‘long and stressful’ week in hospital.
Towie star Georgia, 33, who gave birth to her daughter Gigi last month, announced her sprog will be returning home for Christmas in an emotional Instagram post.
Alongside images of Gigi attached to nasogastric tubes, Georgia revealed that she had spent a difficult week in the hospital battling bronchitis.
She claimed the illness had escalated to the point where Gigi required oxygen support, making it a particularly worrying time for the family.
Thankfully, after days of stress and uncertainty, Gigi was given the all-clear to return home.
Georgia wrote in her caption, “Time to get you home for Christmas, baby girl. After a long stressful week in hospital, Gigi is allowed home.
“Gigi’s bronchitis got worse, and she needed to be on oxygen.
“What I’ve learnt most is always go with your gut, and if you think your baby isn’t well, always check it out!”
Georgia’s heartfelt post also included a special thank-you to the medical team at Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow.
She praised the nurses and doctors for their exceptional care, saying, “They were incredible with Gigi.”
Her gratitude extended to her family and friends, who supported her during the challenging week.
“Thank you to our family for keeping things going at home with Brody, and our friends for checking in. We love you,” she wrote.
The post garnered an outpouring of support from friends and fans alike.
Amy Childs commented, “Sending you lots of love @georgiakousoulou xxx,” while Dani Dyer wrote, “Oh darling girl sending you all lots of love xxx.”
Cara De La Hoyde added three heart emojis as Charlotte Dawson concluded, “Sending so much love babe it’s the worst I really feel for you all.”
Georgia, who shares Gigi with Tommy Mallet, 32, told how they were forced to rush her to A&E last week.
The reality star took to Instagram to share a snap following their trip to the hospital.
As she cuddled her daughter, she wrote: “Baby girl not well… trip to a&e and she has bronchitis.
“Worst thing when they are this small.”
She also begged fans for tips on how to cope with the diagnosis at such a young age, adding: “She’s only 3 weeks old.”
Georgia and Tommy are also parents to son Brody, three, and introduced the latest addition to their family on social media in November.
They wrote: “Introducing you .. GIGI Fordham born on 22.11 weighing 8 pound 12
“Our darling girl, we are so in love, our hearts could burst. Thank you god for answering our prayers.”
The couple previously shared the happy news they were expecting again after suffering a tragic miscarriage last year.
Alongside an emotional video at the time, Georgia told her fans she had undergone IVF to have her little girl.
She wrote alongside it: “Our little rainbow baby due December.
“Words can’t express the emotions we have , we have prayed , wished & with a little help it’s happened…”
Last year, the couple were left heartbroken when they went for their 12 week scan and were told about the rare chromosome disorder, called triploid syndrome, that meant their baby had no chance of survival.
The discovery left Georgia with the agony of having to undergo a termination – had she continued with the pregnancy, her baby would have been miscarried or stillborn.
