"So as you can imagine, I've been quite stressed for them. Going to the doctor tomorrow, so we will keep you all updated."

Jamie, who is covering for Mollie King on her Radio 1 show while she's on maternity leave, hasn't commented on his illness, but prior to his hospitalisation shared plenty of sweet snaps of their new puppy.

Sophie and Jamie got engaged in December 2021 and are still in the midst of wedding planning.

The couple has been together since April 2019, with Jamie previously telling HELLO! of their relationship: "All I can say is my girlfriend is pretty special and I'm very lucky to have someone like that in my life, she's epic in every single way. I would be a lucky person to spend my life with her."

Jamie previously sweetly revealed that he "couldn't be more in love" with his other half.

"I always thought I was going to be this guy who just settled, that I would be in a relationship, I would settle, I would maybe end up cheating at some point – I just thought that was life," he said on The Moments That Made Me podcast.

"But then I found someone who I couldn't be more compatible with, couldn't love more, couldn't respect more and realised, this is actually what life is about."
