Poor Louise Redknapp has been sent love and support from her celeb pals as it’s confirmed she’s lost her West End job.
The Strictly Come Dancing star was hospitalised after a dramatic and nasty fall, with her friend, Love Island star Amber Davies wishing her a “speedy recovery.”
Taking to Instagram, Louise – who was due to play Violet Newstead in the new Dolly Parton musical 9-5 – shared a selfie showing her awful injury.
She wrote beside it: “It breaks my heart 💔to say I am having to take some time out and won’t be able to continue with my role in 9-5. Due to a nasty fall I have only gone and fractured my wrist and got 10 (yes 10) stitches in my chin. 🤕.”
The 44-year-old mum-of-two went on: “Following my doctors orders- they have said I will be ok but as they say in the theatre 🎭 ‘the show must go on’ and I wish the rest of the fabulous cast an amazing opening night and I will be back on that stage for 9-5 before you know it. 💔😢💔.”
Her co-star, Amber, 22 – who plays Judy Bernly in the show – was quick to send her love, sharing a picture with Louise and writing: “I leave you for 2 mins!! Wishing one of my favourite humans the most speedy recovery!
“I can’t wait to be beside you as we play leading ladies together❤️.”
Another famous pal, reality star Lizzy Cundy also tweeted support for the Eternal singer, saying: “Wishing you a speedy recovery @LouiseRedknapp and sending you loads of love darling . I’m so sorry 💗🙏🏻xx
