After spending hours in labour, the Big Brother host was rushed to theatre for a forceps delivery.

The invasive (and painful) procedure left Emma unable to sit down for 12 weeks following the birth of her newborn.

It was only when working on her recent series Emma Willis: Delivering Babies, that she realised just how much the traumatic experience has affected her.
Work It!
While watching one woman give birth, Emma fainted while re-living the nightmarish experience. She said:
“One minute I was standing in this operating theatre completely transfixed. Next thing I knew I was coming round having hit the deck, a row of blue hospital Crocs slowing coming into focus. I tried to make excuses afterwards, “Ooh, it’s a bit hot in here,” but I’m sure it was a deep response to what I’d been through.”
