Charlotte Crosby's fiance suffering painful leg infection
Charlotte Crosby has revealed her fiance Jake Ankers has been seen by doctors in Dubai after his leg became badly infected from a slide tackle during a football game in the Maldives - just days after she was treated for a severe chest infection.
Charlotte Crosby's fiance Jake Ankers is suffering from a painful leg infection.
Reality TV star Charlotte, 35, was rushed to a private clinic on Tuesday (06.01.26) with a "hardcore" chest infection after she, Jake and their daughters, Alba, three, and Pixi, 11 months, returned to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from a family holiday to the Maldives, South Asia.
But now, Jake has had to get checked out by doctors in the Middle Eastern city because the side of his right leg has become infected after he performed a slide tackle during a football game in the Maldives.
In an Instagram Stories post on Thursday (08.01.26), Charlotte shared a shot of Jake sitting on a medical examination bed with his "pusing, swollen and hot" graze on display, and penned: "Cannot believe we are back at the drs again.
"Jake's leg has become infected from a sliding tackle he did in a football game in the Maldives you couldn't even write this.
"I shouldn't laugh he's in loads of pain! But honestly I've been in for 3 days and I only ever see kids who've had accidents in here! Then there's b***** us two! (sic)"
Charlotte was "throwing up" and felt "so weak" on the last day of her family's trip to the Maldives, and battled sleepless nights and "coughing fits" as her family flew back to Dubai.
After fans were worried on Tuesday (06.01.26) as the Geordie Shore alum shared a shot of herself lying in a hospital bed wearing an oxygen mask on Instagram Stories, Charlotte said in a separate post on the social media platform that she was battling a chest infection.
The Celebrity Big Brother 2013 winner also reassured her supporters that she is better after doctors in the Middle Eastern city gave her medication.
Writing over a photo of multiple boxes of pills and a thumbs up - posted on her Instagram Stories later on Tuesday - Charlotte said: "Right guys sorry to worry you all!
"So I hadn't been feeling too well the past couple of days! I always get a pretty hardcore chest infection in winter but I thought with us getting away I may of gotten away with it!
"But no it's hit me like a ton of bricks I've not slept really in 48 hours because of that killer travel day and then all last night coughing fits!
"So I got straight to the private clinic here and they sorted me right out! I've got antibiotics, some new strong cough syrup and some steroid tablets!
"Hoping for sleep tonight. (sic)"
Charlotte and her family - whose travel journey from the Male, Maldives, to Dubai consisted of "one speed boat, two planes, and three buses" - were greeted in the Middle Eastern city by her 56-year-old mum, internet personality Letitia Crosby.
Charlotte continued in the caption of her health update: "In other news my mams here and we are all soooo happy!
"She is also being a great nurse to me! (sic)"
