However, on Thursday, he was able to share some "amazing news" with his followers. 

In a video filmed from the foyer of the Royal United Hospital in Bath, Martin said: "They did an MRI scan on my heart this morning and found that I did have a few essential residual problems that they’re going to check over the next few months to check they don’t get any worse, hopefully, they get only better.

"The breathing side of things I’m just going to carry on with it and then have more follow-up meetings with the respiratory team.

"For now, they’ve decided that they’ve done what they can and I’m better placed at home now."

The star also appeared in good spirits on Good Morning Britain earlier this week while giving an update on his condition.

Describing the horror of being awake while doctors rushed to save him, Martin said: "They found I had liquid or water around my heart, which was compressing the heart to a point where at any point it could have stopped.

"Unlike with a normal heart attack, you can't do anything about it. You can't use a defibrillator because the heart itself is literally being strangled.

"Within hours I was in an emergency operating ward having a tube put into this sack around the heart.

"It was very bizarre, I was actually awake for the full process and actually watched as they drained out effectively this death-giving liquid from my chest."
