Love Island's Jazmine Nichol makes defiant return to Newcastle after terrifying health battle

Love Island star Jazmine Nichol had a defiant message for fans as she stepped out in Newcastle, after a terrifying health battle with sepsis,

Jazmine, who has worked as a manager at city centre night spot Chinawhite, went into the most recent series of the ITV show as a bombshell for the Casa Amor twist. She lasted just five days in the villa, after not being picked by any of the lads in the recoupling, as viewers hit out at producers for not giving her enough airtime.

Jazmine reunited with many of her Love Island castmates for the much hyped reunion episode, hosted by Laura Whitmore but, just days after that aired, she sparked concern amongst her growing number of Instagram followers when she posted a photo of herself in a hospital bed, announcing she was 'taking a break' from social media.

Jazmine then shared why she ended up in hospital and just how scary things got for her a week later, revealing tha t she'd had sepsis and was 'lucky to be alive.'

At the beginning of a lengthy Instagram post, the 21-year-old explained: "Had it not been for the quick thinking and action of a staff member who noticed how unwell I had become things could have been very different."

Jazmine added that "within minutes" her skin had turned from its natural colour to a blue/grey shade, with doctors contacting her family to tell them she was seriously unwell. The reality star has been quick to thank those who cared for her and looking to be on good form when she enjoyed a night out at recently opened Quayside bar and restaurant Victor's on Friday.

The chain is a big favourite of Wayne Rooney and, as she posted up a storm by the bar, Jazmine had an encouraging and defiant message for her followers, in the caption she used to accompany the photos of her evening on Instagram.

Next to the pictures, she wrote: "She's back," and, when sharing them to her Instagram story, added: "Back and better than ever."
