Sam Faiers sparks concern after being ‘struck by worst flu possible’ over Christmas

Sam Faiers has shared a concerning update, saying she’s been suffering from the “worst flu possible” throughout the Christmas period.

The reality star, 31, updated her fans following the festive period on Instagram, as she shared a photo of her Christmas dinner table and explained that she’s been ill.

In a caption over her Instagram story, Sam wrote: “Hey, I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas.

“I’ve been [quiet] on here as I was struck down with the worst possible flu you can imagine, after 8 days, today I’m starting to feel a bit better.

“So upset it happened over my favourite week of the entire year.

“Anyway, I’m just so happy I’m on the mend.”


Although Sam kept quiet on social media updates over Christmas, she did update fans on Christmas Eve as she showed her baby son Edward reaching a key milestone.

The former TOWIE star, who also shares children Paul, six, and Rosie, four, with her husband Paul Knightley, 33, revealed her baby boy has started to crawl.

With a sweet video to illustrate his milestone moment, Sam showed her tot rapidly moving across her newly-vacuumed cream carpet to the fireplace.

On it, The Mummy Diaries reality star had carefully arranged a series of Christmas decorations and items for display.

Edward was making a beeline for an intricate wooden nutcracker decoration that stood proudly at the corner, as fans joked that it wouldn't be there for long.

Sam captioned the post: "Christmas Eve Eve Surprise..

The crawling has started, wish me luck. I’m worried for my tree."

Sam's elder sister Billie was one of the first to congratulate the little boy as she praised her nephew for reaching the next phase of his life.

"Yayyyyyyy go Edward !!! Love you darling now your off !!!!" the star exclaimed. "Ready to explore the world."

"Oh no watch out xxx bless him xxxx let the adventures begin xxx," a fan wrote.

"Wow this seems too soon lol," another person joked.

While a fourth shared their disbelief as they wrote: "Wow can't believe how time flies!"

Sam and partner Paul welcomed their son Edward in May this year, announcing his birth with a sweet photo of the mum of three kissing his head.

In the caption, she wrote: "Edward Knightley. A month ago today you were born at home surrounded by so much love.

"It’s for sure been a game changer for mummy having 3 little Knightley’s, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. I have soaked up every second with you darling, this is just the beginning.."
