GK Barry, known for her appearance on the popular show "I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here", has recently shared some scary news on her Instagram story. She revealed that she is currently in the hospital with her girlfriend Ella Rutherford. The photo she posted showed GK, whose real name is Grace Keeling, sitting in a hospital waiting room chair, with the caption "Currently in A&E with Ella, the emetophobia and germ phobia has been confirmed."
In case you're wondering, emetophobia is a fear or anxiety of vomiting or seeing others vomit. It can also be linked to a fear of losing control or feeling trapped. GK has openly talked about her struggle with this fear before, so it must have been a terrifying experience for her when she and Ella made an emergency visit to the hospital.
It's not clear what caused the emergency, but according to the NHS, emetophobia can be triggered by various situations. GK has previously shared her fear of vomit, even before entering the jungle to compete in the show alongside other celebrities like Reverend Richard Coles and Coleen Rooney. She had mentioned that she was terrified of the trials and pretty much everything else, and that she hadn't slept in a month because of it.
Before her appearance on Loose Women, GK had also shared that she went to see a professional because she was scared of flying, which turned out to be linked to her travel sickness as a child. She also went on to explain how she used to associate her panic with being sick, and how she had a traumatic experience of someone throwing up on her on a bus.
Despite her fear, GK still managed to make it to the top five in the show and support Ella as she greeted her upon her exit from the jungle. The couple has been dating since June and have been inseparable ever since. GK often speaks publicly about her love for Ella, and it's clear that even her fear of vomit couldn't keep her from being by her side in the hospital.
It's not easy to overcome fears, and GK has tried various methods such as hypnotherapy and facing her fear head-on. It was actually going to university and being surrounded by sickness that helped her the most. She had to force herself to be okay with it, and now she can proudly say that she has overcome her fear of vomit.
It's important to remember that everyone has their own struggles and fears, and it's okay to seek help and support when needed. GK's story is a reminder that with determination and support, we can overcome even the most challenging fears. We wish her and Ella a speedy recovery, and we look forward to seeing them both back on their feet and happy together.
