Martin Roberts has provided an update from hospital after a health scare saw him rushed through to an emergency operating ward. The Homes Under the Hammer presenter spoke to Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid about the terrifying ordeal on Good Morning Britain as he recovers in hospital.
Last week Martin learned from doctors he was suffering from a cardiac tamponade, when extra fluid builds up around the heart and puts pressure on it. Martin said the condition could have left him with "hours to live".
Speaking to the GMB hosts on Monday, April 25, Martin told how the hospital staff "literally saved" his life and explained how he watched fluid being drained from around his heart. Speaking from his hospital room, the 58-year-old detailed how he had been experiencing "a real tightness in my chest and difficulty breathing" over the Easter bank holiday weekend before being rushed to A&E.
