THE One Show star Alex Jones was forced to miss the programme last night after her son was admitted to hospital.
The TV presenter sparked concern among her followers when she took to social media to reveal that one of her sons was receiving treatment in hospital.
Alex chose not to share which of her sons was receiving medical attention and did not add any further details as to what was happening.
Taking to Instagram, she uploaded a photo of one of her sons in a hospital bed being treated by a nurse.
Whilst his face was cut off, his extended arm could be seen as well as an iPad in the bed at the side of him.
Alex captioned the snap: “Never gets any easier but made so much better thanks to the amazingly kind and gentle staff.”
In order to not cause any alarm, Alex then shortly afterwards uploaded another post to share her “relief” that the treatment her son was undergoing was “done”.
She smiled for a selfie as she wrote: “Such a relief that it’s done!
“Needless to say, I won’t be on @bbctheoneshow later but @laurenlaverne and @gabbylogan will look after you x.”
Gabby stepped into Alex’s shoes alongside regular co-host Lauren Laverne for last night’s programme as they chatted to Pete Wicks and the stars of new Netflix drama Missing You.
In 2022, Alex revealed that her son Kit was enduring a hospital stay for a routine operation.
Speaking at the time, Alex said online: “Waiting for my little Kit to come back from the theatre after a very routine op but feels like the longest morning of my life!”
