Busted star Charlie Simpson's son rushed to hospital on holiday after rare incident in pool

Busted star Charlie Simpson has told of the "terrifying" moment his youngest son Jago was rushed to hospital while on holiday. The singer, who rose to fame alongside Matt Willis and James Bourne as part of noughties boyband, shared his experience on social media in a bid to warn fellow parents.

Alongside a picture of his four-year-old in A&E, Charlie explained how his son had suffered with "secondary drowning" after inhaling water from a pool during a recent family holiday.

He wrote: "Hi all, I wanted to share a terrifying experience we had recently with my youngest son Jago, in the hope that if it helps just one person avoid a similar situation, it will be worth it."
