Warwick Davis gathered family to say goodbye during wife's sepsis battle

Star Wars actor, comedian and filmmaker Warwick Davis has played a host of high profile film roles but nothing could prepare him for the personal ordeal he faced when his wife Sam was rushed to hospital. She was facing a life-threatening condition that "came out of nowhere".

The Harry Potter and ITV Tenable star admitted that he didn't know if the mother of their two children, Annabelle, 25, and Harrison, 19, would make it. Saying she was so ill he told their children to 'say goodbye' to her.

Wife Sam was diagnosed with sepsis after saying she was felling drowsy and being rushed to hospital. The Mirror reported that doctors then became concerned about a scar on her back from a spinal surgery that was “inflamed with fluid, red, and hot to touch”.
