TOWIE's Lydia Bright had to rush to hospital after her daughter, Loretta, fell ill.

Opening up about the "traumatic" experience, the reality star shared a photo of her daughter in hospital with the caption, "The last three days have hurt 💔 I felt completely delirious, helpless and sick watching Loretta so ill.

"I’m still in shock at how quickly children can fall ill and equally how quickly they bounce back."

She continued, "What started as a virus resulting in a cough on Sunday, soon escalated into Loretta not being able to breathe without an oxygen mask or nebuliser by Monday.

"Seeing so many sick children around me was equally as traumatic and the realisation of daily life for so many parents with sick children breaks my heart 💔."

Lydia also used the post as an opportunity to thanks the medical staff by saying, "The cuts put on the NHS are so obvious to see.

"However, despite the enormous strain and pressure the doctors, nurses & consultants are under they made us feel like Loretta was their only patient."
