But the brainbox was relieved that she is \u201calright\u201d and can still talk and sing.<\/p>\n
The Box contestant shared several shots of her scar on Instagram in July, with the caption: \u201cHello my lovelies. You might notice my new scar. You\u2019d be hard pushed to not spot it, given it\u2019s right on the front of my neck.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs much as I\u2019d like to have an exciting and glamorous reason (old timey duel, Olympic fencing practice, near miss with guillotine) the reality is not so sexy.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy thyroid gland made a bid for fame and got so big it started causing some problems so we* chopped it out. [sic]\u201d<\/p>\n
The TV personality contestant reassured fans she was okay and \u201chealing nicely\u201d after going under the knife.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m fine. Surgery was all good and the consultant is very happy.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy voice still works and it\u2019s healing nicely.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had to stay quite still for a couple of weeks in case my head fell off** but we are grand now. [sic]\u201d<\/p>\n
She continued: \u201cThanks to the head and neck gang and all the terrific people who looked after me at UCH. The NHS is beyond wonderful.<\/p>\n
\u201cSee you around eg for @fingersbuzzers LIVE at Bolton Comedy Festival on July 18.<\/p>\n
\u201c*Actual professional surgeons.<\/p>\n
\u201c** Hyperbole. Let me have this bit of drama, please. [sic]\u201d<\/p>\n
