“I have shingles for the THIRD time and I’m not 90?!? What the hell?”

Rochelle‘s celeb pals rushed to the comments to tell her to get well soon, with fellow This Morning star Holly Willoughby writing, “Oh darlin… you need to rest!!!!! Xxx.”

TV chef John Torode wrote, “So sorry… pleased I made you laugh today,” and presenter Lisa Snowdon said, “Oh no! Bless you, rest up.”

Shingles is an infection that leads to a painful rash, but early signs include tingling or painful feelings, headaches and generally feeling unwell.

The rash will normally appear on the chest and stomach, although it can pop up on other parts of the body, such as the eyes and face.

Rochelle’s health news comes just a day after she co-hosted This Morning alongside former Big Brother host Davina McCall, who was reunited on the show with reality star Nikki Grahame.

Rochelle also made a surprise appearance on This Morning on Thursday (August 22), when she was brought on as a stand-in for Ruth Langsford.

Ruth was mysteriously absent from the programme and as the episode opened, her husband Eamonn Holmes was seen sitting next to Rochelle instead.
