Rylan Clark paid tribute to his mum on her 73rd birthday following her hospital dash on Friday. The popular presenter skipped hosting his Radio 2 show on Saturday as he dashed to be by her side, with the star taking to social media to reveal the “antibiotics have worked” as she recovered from her illness.
Thankfully, she was back home in time for her birthday this weekend and Rylan shared a carousel of sweet pictures taken with mum Linda as he captioned the post: “Happy Birthday to the best mum. So glad ur home for it. Love you.” The first picture saw the two smiling lovingly at each other as they posed in front of a wall of flowers.
