OLIVIA Bowen fans have broken down in tears watching traumatic scenes as she recounted her near-fatal labour.
The TV personality, 31, – who met and fell for husband Alex on Love Island in 2016 – gave birth to baby Siena in August.
Opening up recently about her ordeal, Olivia and Alex exclusively told The Sun that it was the “scariest” experience of their life as they revealed exactly what happened.
During last night’s show, Olivia explained how she was hoping to have an easier birth after a traumatic experience when she had son Abel in 2022.
But, Olivia explained how she felt that something was wrong and got rushed to A&E in an ambulance.
This led the doctors to discover that she had a severe bladder prolapse, which occurs when the bladder slips down from its normal position and can bulge out of the vagina.

She said: “I was really scared, its a surgery and its a big thing and its not the easy was out.
“She came out crying which was incredible and beautiful and I had her on my face and I started to feel dizzy.
Olivia added: “The nurse started calling out how much blood I was loosing and all I could hear was 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 and it was going up and up quickly and the fear sunk in really quickly, it was really scary.”
A visibly upset Olivia then broke into tears and said: “They started yelling, major haemorrhage across all the surgery room and that’s all I remember.

‘I don’t even know why it’s happening…’: Katie Price shows off her tiny waist and tattooed stomach after revealing her mystery weight loss — as the 46-year-old undergoes full-body ‘ultimate reset’ treatment amid growing concern from fans and family… - suong
KATIE Price has showcased her very slender waist and tattooed stomach after she confessed she “doesn’t know” the reason for her weight loss.
The former glamour model, 46, revealed her “snatched and defined” look as she headed for a beauty treatment in Greater Manchester.
It came after the mum of five concerned fans when she was rushed to hospital – claiming medics are baffled by her slimmed-down frame.
Now Katie, who sought further medical advice for her weight just last month, has undergone an “ultimate reset” with full-body lymphatic drainage treatment.
A series of images posted to Drain and Define’s Instagram page showed her lying on her back, with her bare tummy and array of body artwork exposed.
Her tanned, slender waist could clearly be seen as she stayed snug under two beige towels.
In their caption, the Bury-based business wrote: “Full body lymphatic drainage meets sculpting wood therapy.
“The ultimate reset for @katieprice — her stomach looked snatched and defined, and the post-treatment zen was unreal.
“Pure transformation inside and out.”
Lymphatic drainage has been dubbed the “celeb weight loss massage” with the likes of Hailey Bieber, Dua Lipa and Kylie Jenner all self-confessed fans.
It was initially designed to relieve inflammation related to lymphoedema – a condition that causes swelling in the body’s tissues, sometimes as a result of cancer treatment, infection, injury or long periods of immobility.
But in 2025, lymphatic drainage is now touted as a way to reduce stress, appear slimmer and get glowing skin.
It is a non invasive treatment and a lot like a gentle therapeutic massage, used to alleviate digestive issues, hormonal imbalance, and reduce cellulite.
HEALTH CONCERNS
Just last month, Katie uploaded a selfie to social media with a concerning caption.
She wrote: “First day off and straight to the doctors to find out what’s happened to my weight.”
She also shared another snap of herself in a pink hoodie and said: “Doctors for bloods to see why I’m losing weight.”
This comes after she revealed she was in hospital last month after drastically shedding the pounds over the past 12 months.
The Celebrity Big Brother winner told her fans on Snapchat at the time: “I’ve been up early at the doctors so she could do some bloods and because my veins are so s*** they had three attempts.
“They could only fill two tubes up, so I’ve got to go back in two weeks.
“And I’ve got to have my stitches out then because they looked at my little stab wound that I did.”
Her frail frame has been a cause of concern for her fans over the last few months, with many of her loyal followers taking to the comments section of her pictures to share their worries.
FAMILY CLAP BACK
Her fans aren’t the only ones who have shared their concerns as the former glamour model’s family have also said their piece.
In August, while filming the first episode of her new podcast, The Katie Price show, she was joined by her sister Sophie.
As the podcast was wrapping up, the sister duo were joined by Sophie’s dad and Katie stepdad Paul as talk soon turned to Katie’s weight loss.
On the episode, Katie, who recently showed off her newest surgery, asked her dad: “What are you looking at?” to which he replied: “Look how thin them legs are, terrible they are, my hand can go round them.”
She replied: “They’re obsessed with my weight,” as Sophie chimed in: “You are thin.”
Katie was heard insisting: “I am happy,” as her dad retorted: “No it’s not right, it’s probably that vaping crap.”
