Gemma Collins says she mistook long Covid for a heart attack, prompting her to call an ambulance.
The Diva Forever star, 42, caught the virus last year and has been suffering from its side effects ever since.
Speaking about a terrifying ordeal last month when she was struggling with chest pain, she said: “The palpitations got so bad I thought I was having a heart attack. I called an ambulance and the paramedics did an ECG [electrocardiogram] and said, ‘We need to take you to hospital.’
