Chris Hughes has been hospitalised in a terrifying health scare.
The Love Island star, 30, took to Instagram on Wednesday to reveal he had alcohol hepatitis after heading on a boozy night out on Saturday night.
Chris had to be admitted to hospital after a workout and sauna on Monday left his body severely dehydrated and unable to breakdown his alcohol consumption.
Scare: Chris Hughes has been hospitalised in a terrifying health scare
Chris said while he thought he was ‘sweating out’ the toxins, he was instead ‘torturing his body’.
Sharing a photo of himself in a hospital gown hooked up to an IV drip, Chris said one sip of water made him feel sick.
He wrote: ‘So basically all my antics on Saturday have caused this. When I was posting away about running that 4k, I was not truly hungover Sunday and Monday, but I was ‘chronically dehydrated and have alcohol hepatitis’… (not cool, not at all) where essentially my liver is damaged and couldn’t consume the alcohol consumption and the bloods have also showed that.’

He added: ‘Our NHS are insanely good, as we know. They’ve been thorough and over the top friendly which to me is the perfect combo. I haven’t managed to consume water that’s why I’m on this drip, a sip of water makes me feel sick.
‘I am ruined. I’ve learned my lesson. My issue though, quite clear.
‘Went for that run Sunday and I went to a class Monday and did a 45 minute circuit, burnt 550 calories then went to sauna to sweat again for 45 minutes. Thinking I’m getting the alcohol out but in fact I was just torturing my body.’
