Emmerdale’s Danny Miller shares worrying health update as he admits to feeling 'the worst he's ever felt in his life'

Emmerdale star Danny Miller, who played bad boy Aaron Dingle in the long-running ITV soap, has shared a health update as he admits to feeling "the worst he's ever felt in his life."

The former King of the Jungle opened up to fans on social media as he discussed his experience with the horrible illness and asked if anyone else had experienced anything similar. The actor, who won the Best British Soap Award for Best Actor three times for his work on Emmerdale, said the illness that has floored him for the past few days is "like Covid x10."

Danny penned: "HELP! I've felt the worst I've ever felt in my life these last few days. Like covid x10! But not covid! Has anyone been in the same situation? Please tell me it gets easier. Day 3 now."

It comes only days after the 31-year-old returned to our screens on Saturday night as he took part in Celebrity Catchphrase alongside host Stephen Mulhern. Danny was joined on the show by Richard Arnold and Rachel Stevens.

Danny stormed ahead, making £1000 and being in the lead by the end of the first part. During the second part of the show, Danny revealed that prior to being a famous soap face, he worked as a door-to-door salesman.

When host Stephen said: "Now be honest, was that a fluke guess? "Danny replied, "Well I used to be a door-to-door salesman, selling windows and doors," much to the host's shock.

And it wasn't the only frank admission Danny made that night. He also revealed a hidden secret about a so-called 'crying stick' to help him show emotion during his time on the soap. When asked by host Stephen Mulhern "You do a lot of crying on the show, what is this crying stick?", Danny jokingly replied that he never needed it.

The crying stick is something that actors can use to stick on their noses, to help them burst into tears during an emotional scene. Danny said: “Well Stephen I never needed to use it, there will be the Emmerdale cast watching this now, saying you liar!”
