Jack Whitehall has revealed his girlfriend Roxy Horner collapsed at the Brit Awards last year while he was hosting the ceremony.
The model and actress, 31, revealed that she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes back in 2021.
But before she was diagnosed, Roxy had a health scare and had to be resuscitated by paramedics.
Jack told The Sun: 'We found out she had diabetes the night I was hosting the Brits. She had something called a diabetic hypo and she fainted.
'Paramedics were trying to resuscitate her and her sugar levels were spiking dangerously.

Health: Roxy now wears an electronic device which monitors her blood glucose level and sends a message and alarm to her and others phones when it is dangerously low
'We ended up in A&E on the night of the Brits, which definitely made for a slightly different vibe of an after-party.
A hypo, also called hypoglycaemia, is a low blood sugar level, and happens when the level of sugar (glucose) in blood drops too low.
People who struggle with diabetes need daily injections of insulin to keep your blood glucose levels under control.
