UK Eurovision act Mae Muller battles illness as she performs entry live for first time

Earlier this month Mae, who supported Little Mix on tour last year, was announced as the UK's Eurovision act, after speculation linked a whole host of stars with the honour, including bookies favourite Birdy, Weekends singer Freya Ridings and Brit nominee Rina Sawayama.

Mae was quick to share her excitement at being chosen, with her enjoying her first bit of primetime TV spotlight as the video for her Eurovision entry, I Wrote A Song, had its premiere right before an episode of The Apprentice, as millions tuned in.
