Mrs Hinch shares health update after being rushed to hospital
Mrs Hinch has been rushed to hospital and has shared a worrying diagnosis with fans.
The cleaning guru – whose real name is Sophie Hinchcliffe – has revealed she went to hospital after suffering from some worrying symptoms. Taking to social media, she updated her fans after undergoing an operation and is now recovering.
As she explained what had happened, she admitted it had been a tough 12 months as she explained: “I’m not really sure where to start with this week guys.” Speaking to her Instagram followers, she said: “I’ve actually bumped into quite a few followers in hospital. So I just thought I’d update you a bit because I share a lot with you here. The good, the bad and the ugly.
“Anyway to cut a long story short, I had a blood clot in my groin / pelvis / leg area. I haven’t had one since 2018 and then another one decides to hit me three weeks postpartum. What a 12 months it’s been.”
Getting emotional, Mrs Hinch then said she had bumped into some really lovely followers in A&E and they asked what I was doing here and I told them I think I’ve got a blood clot in my leg. I was right. But keeping positive.”
Sophie also revealed she had underwent an operation, explaining: “They managed to go in through my leg. They didn’t go through in my neck in the end. They hoovered out the blood clot and they hoovered my stents out. They’ve literally hoovered me which is ironic isn’t it?” I think I’ve still got quite a lot of painkillers or anaesthetic in my system so I’m probably not making sense.”
However, Sophie had good news – she was hoping to head home to be with her family tomorrow.
“They’ve said I can go home tomorrow,” she said, “And I cannot wait to just pick up Vinnie – that newborn smell. I’m swear I’m getting withdrawal symptoms from him. But how are you all doing?
“I’ve had a lovely FaceTime with the boys, that was amazing, and I should be back home in my newborn bubble with my little family tomorrow … I got put through a CT scan and they said there’s no blood clot, you can go home. I went home; my leg got bigger and bigger. I came back to a different hospital and they scanned me and said we need to operate, you’ve got a big blood clot.”
She added: “How mad is that? And that keeps playing on my mind. What if I didn’t come back? Just trust your gut guys. Trust your bloody gut. Anyway over and out from me and blood clot. I can’t wait to wake up in the morning and get home.”
Mrs Hinch has been open about a very tough year before welcoming baby Vinnie Alan Barker into the world. Announcing his arrival, she shared: “Vinnie Alan Barker Hinchliffe. Born 18th February at 12:21pm, 6lb7oz. Our beautiful little heart healer entered the world In the month we needed him most, February. February is my Dads birthday month, my birthday month, … And now, it’s our Vinnies. The signs, the comfort ,the joy, you really are just everything we have needed and more Vinnie. Now it’s time to meet your beautiful big brothers, and start the next chapter in our Hinch story.”
Back in April 2024, Sophie’s father sadly passed away “suddenly” in his sleep. At the time, she posted a heartbreaking tribute to her father, writing: “25th April 2024. My precious Dad passed suddenly but so peacefully whilst he slept. My life, our whole world, has been turned upside down. A deep unimaginable pain I cannot put into words. My loving Dad, Your workshop is locked up and I sleep with the key. I promise to keep your workshop dream going.
“Until we meet and sing together again. Goodnight Dad My absolute king Your Bubberloo. Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.”
