BILLI Mucklow has whisked her son to hospital after he fell 'scarily' unwell with a sickness bug.

The former Towie star's son Arlo suffers from Type 1 diabetes, meaning the virus caused his ketones level to shoot up dangerously high.

Billi, 37, shared a picture of nine-year-old Arlo propped up in a hospital bed in A&E and told her followers how frightening it had been.

She said: "Sickness bug with a Type 1 diabetic is so scary!

"First time Arlo has had ketones 1.6 so we ended up in A&E."

Billi shares Arlo with her estranged husband, footballer Andy Carroll. The former couple are also parents to Wolf, seven, and four-year-old Marvel.

They split in 2024 after 11 years together, with The Sun revealing their break-up had happened quietly in July.

Andy later went public with his new relationship with Lou Teasdale in December and currently splits his time between France and the UK.

The former England striker now plays for Championnat National 2 club Bordeaux.

On Monday, Andy shared a loved up picture of himself and Lou in Bordeaux by the harbour.

Billi, meanwhile, is living in the £4.1m family mansion back home in the UK with their three children.

Andy's two teenage children from his from his former relationship with Faye Johnstone are also believed to regularly stay with her at their house.

Before Arlo was taken to hospital, Billi told how the household had been struck down with a nasty sickness bug.

She said: "Sickness bug has got 2 out of 5. Who's next?"
