Big Fat Gypsy Weddings star Paddy Doherty rushed to hospital after suffering heart attack

BIG Fat Gypsy Weddings star Paddy Doherty was rushed to hospital after suffering a heart attack.

The 62-year-old reality TV favourite updated his fans on his latest health battle in a video taken from his hospital bed.


In the clip, a breathless Paddy said he "looked and felt 100 times better" after a shave and brushing his teeth.

And he thanked the NHS for taking good care of him, adding: "Without them, we wouldn't survive."

The former bare knuckle boxer finished the video vowing to "be back stronger" before launching into an Arnold Schwarzenegger impression.

He added: "I wouldn't say I'm great, but I'm getting there."

Paddy first revealed he had been hospitalised due to problems with his heart on April 25.

He said medics were "worried" about him in footage from the time, but he last night insisted he now felt "fantastic".

Paddy later vowed to "stop drinking and messing about" after "doing things in life I shouldn't do".

And he encouraged viewers to "think positive" and talk about their problems.

The Celebrity Big Brother winner wound up on oxygen following breathing struggles, which "knocked him down for six".

He described his brush with the virus as his "hardest fight ever".

Paddy, who in 2019 got the all-clear from prostate cancer, told a friend: "I’ve taken a lot of hits over the years – but nothing like this.

"Just when you think you’ve beaten the crap out it if – bang it comes back and floors you."
