A Celebrity Gogglebox star has shared a health update after collapsing.
Happy Mondays stars Shaun Ryder and Bez are a popular duo on the hit Channel 4 programme, after joining the line-up back in 2019. The pair are known for their hilarious and candid commentary, delighting fans with their unique chemistry and outspoken takes on the latest TV shows.
Shaun and Bez appeared on BBC Breakfast on Tuesday (January 6) as they mark 35 years since the release of their iconic album Pills ‘n’ Thrills and Bellyaches. Happy Mondays will celebrate the anniversary with a tour that kicks off in March.
While speaking to hosts Jon Kay and Sarah Campbell this morning, Shaun revealed that he suffered a recent health scare. “How are you physically, because you weren’t well before Christmas, were you?” Jon asked.
Shaun replied: “I got pneumonia. I was on tour [and] I ended up with pneumonia. [I] had to throw everything I could down me, every sort of painkiller and everything else just to get through it.
“When I got back, I couldn’t even go to the funeral, Mani’s funeral. I got back the day before Mani’s funeral and collapsed, so I couldn’t even go… Like I say, you have to get the job done on the tour, we’re old school you know.”
Shaun then explained that he was prescribed antibiotics, which have helped him recover.
