BBC presenter Qasa Alom was taken to the hospital after ‘battling his body with a health issue’. The rising star, who recently hosted BBC’s Today at Wimbledon, took to his Instagram page to share a carousel of pictures of himself at the hospital recovering from his illness. In the first snap, he threw up the peace sign while sitting on a hospital bed.

He wrote: “I can’t say the last few weeks have been easy… Ever since the middle of Wimbledon, I’ve been battling my body with a health issue. I put off getting proper medical care because I just did not want to miss The Championships (error). Eventually, it became too much & escalated.”

He also shared pictures of a nurse taking blood and a picture of himself being wheeled into an ambulance on a stretcher. In his post, Qasa thanked the NHS for being ‘brilliant in giving him the care he needed’. It comes after reports of all the celebrities rumoured to be joining BBC Strictly Come Dancing 2025.

“A real wake-up call to all those health-conscious young seemingly fit people out there seeing this,” the star wrote. “No matter how good your VO2 max might be; or what your resting heart rate is….no matter how many chia seeds you eat or interval fasts you can do….things can happen inside of our bodies that you can’t control and it will completely knock you for six.

“Respect your body and its limitations. We only have one. Grateful to my family for helping me through a difficult period & now the road to recovery.”

His friends and fans took to the comment section to send their well wishes. One user said: “Sending lots of love my friend!!” and another posted: “So glad you’re feeling better.”
