Former Loose Women star Andrea McLean has spoken of the debilitating effects of having contracted Covid three times followed by flu.
The TV favourite told of a "rough" past few months which saw her take to her bed when she did more than her body was ready for. But, in an update on her health, she says she is starting to feel better and is able to exercise again, The Mirror reports.
It adds that the 53-year-old felt "absolutely throttled" by flu around Christmas time, leading to her being tested for lupus but doctors discovered that she had long Covid. She spoke about her health to Bella magazine, having previously shared a social media post about how she had been bedridden for three days after doing too much as she tried to recover.
