Liberty X star Michelle Heaton rushed to hospital while on holiday in Bali

Michelle Heaton is recovering after being rushed to holiday while nearing the end of what was meant to be a relaxing holiday in Bali.

The Gateshead-born star, most famous for being a member of Liberty X, took to Instagram to reveal she needed urgent treatment for severe dehydration after she contracted food poisoning, which she believes may have been caused by contaminated ice.

Geordie performer Michelle had to be hooked up to an IV drip and shared a picture of herself in a wheelchair and then in hospital being treated by a doctor.

The 40-year-old took to Instagram to reveal all about the unfortunate turn of events, writing: "Last night I collapsed from severe dehydration. It just goes to show you need to drink lots of water.

"My problem was I had Bali belly at the same time. I was dripped up to an IV and I'm much better now.

"Be careful what you eat and drink in foreign countries, especially the ice, because I was not very well at all."

The mum of two is now back at home in the UK after managing to enjoy her last few days in Indonesia and even getting a tattoo to mark her memorable trip away.

Returning to Insta, she wrote "going back with a host of ideas on what to do with my life including .. getting to grips with my hormones with  @drmartinkinsella. But in the mean time got a clear mind a bit of a tan and loads of IV scars to show when back."
