Jessie Wynter shares update after being rushed to hospital as her drink was spiked

Jessie Wynter has shared an update on her health after she was hospitalised due to her drink being spiked while on holiday in the US.

The former Love Island contestant, 26, had embarked on a trip to Chicago with her partner, Will Young, when the incident occurred.

Telling her followers of the incident, she took to social media to share the message, “I wasn't sure if I should post this as I felt so embarrassed but the other night I was unfortunately rushed to hospital after my drink was spiked.”

Jessie confirmed that she had been looked after by Will but was concerned about the number of women taken to hospital for the same issue.

Uploading an image of a field surrounded by trees with a white horse in the background, she added text over the top that read: “I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone for all the messages, love and support I’ve been given on my last post.

“I’m doing okay now, I am at home spending time with Will and my family.
