Amy Childs has broken her silence after her baby son’s admission to the hospital.

The influencer has four children, eight-month-old twins Billy and Amelia, Polly, 6, and Ritchie, 4.

When the influencer’s son, Billy, was ‘struggling to breathe’, she acted quickly and rushed him straight to hospital.

Amy has since provided an update on social media, confirming he is recovering after a particularly bad case of tonsillitis.

Now that Billy is on the mend, the mum-of-four updated her followers on how she decided to unwind after a challenging few days.

“Much needed cheese night… had a stressful, worrying few days,” she wrote.

“Now at home with a glass of prosecco and my favourite – a cheese board.”

“My favourite cheese is chilli cheddar.”

The TV personality’s fiance, Billy Delbosq, also shared the same worry, posting from the hospital about his son’s condition.

“Poor little man. As a dad you feel so helpless when they’re ill, but fingers crossed he’ll be on the mend.”

At the time of Billy’s medical emergency, Amy shared a detailed account of what was happening to her son.

“Thank you for all your messages about baby Billy, sadly we ended up in A&E last night waiting eight hours to be seen. Bill’s coughing got worse and was struggling to breathe.

“As a mum I was so worried as when he was a few minutes old when he was born he got taken away and put in the NICU unit for days as he was struggling to breathe.

“He is OK this morning just still worrying about his breathing and coughing. Just lots of cuddles with mummy and daddy this morning. My darling Billy.”

Little Billy’s medical emergency came just hours after his mum celebrated National Twin Day on social media.

The social media personality welcomed twins Billy and Amelia in April this year with her fiancé.

Amy welcomed her elder children, Polly, six, and Ritchie, four, in previous relationships.
