CELEBRITY Big Brother winner Paddy Doherty has asked fans for “prayers” after revealing his wife is in hospital.
The reality TV star, 67, took to TikTok to reveal spouse Roseanne’s worrying condition as he strolled around the medical ward.
Paddy, who won CBB back in 2011 beating Kerry Katona, was visibly upset as he confirmed she had pneumonia and staff were “putting drips on her”.
He continued: “But thank god, because she couldn’t be in a better place than a hospital.
“She’s getting attention, she’s getting looked after”.
He then praised the hospital as “the greatest place in the world” before he was captured greeting fans in the car park.
Paddy rounded off his clip with the words: “Be lucky, be safe and god bless you all”.
In his caption, he asked for fans to assist and put: “Prayers for my wife”.
His loyal fans were quick to comment and one put: ”I have it Paddy very hard to shake but god bless your beautiful wife”.
A second put: “Prayers for your Wife Paddy. Get well soon Roseanne”.
A third mused: “Get well soon Roseanne x”
The former bare knuckle boxer married Roseanne back in 1977.
The pair now live on a traveller site in North Wales.
Roseanne’s medical condition came after Paddy battled prostate cancer in 2019.
At the time Paddy – star of hit TV show Big Fat Gypsy Wedding – admitted: “I’ve been to hell and back with this and it’s worse than getting a horrendous beating.
CBB’s back door evictions
CELEBRITY Big Brother likes to shock fans – and contestants alike – with shock back door evictions. Here’s a handful of the most unexpected.
“The pain got so bad that I actually thought about taking my own life on two occasions.
But I just couldn’t do that to my family – and instead I just drank myself into oblivion.
“The only people who have known about this are my wife, my brothers and sister.
“And it was my wife who suggested I should speak out about the condition – she said it might encourage other men to get themselves checked out.”
In October 2019, he revealed he had beaten cancer following a six hour surgery.
