This morning, Ashley James, the beloved host of This Morning, was faced with a mother's worst nightmare. Her three-year-old son, Alfie, had taken a bad fall and was rushed to the A&E. As a devoted mother of two, Ashley has made numerous appearances on the popular ITV morning show, either as a guest panelist or a host. Her fans have always admired her for her openness and honesty, especially when it comes to her family life with her partner, Tom Andrews.
However, on this particular Monday morning, Ashley had to share a heart-wrenching update with her followers on Instagram. Her daughter, Ada, was sick and had to stay home from school, while her son Alfie was in the hospital with his dad. In her Instagram story, she shared, "Quite the dramatic start to the week. Definitely crash landed back from a child-free weekend. Little lady was up poorly in the night, weren't you?" She addressed her one-year-old daughter, Ada, who was cuddled up next to her.
Ashley continued, "She's not at nursery today as she's a bit poorly, aren't you? You've got a bit of a temperature." Little did she know that the day was about to get even more dramatic. Ashley revealed that Alfie had taken a fall at the playground the previous day and was now complaining of a sore ankle. "Tommy is at A&E with Alfie," she said, her voice trembling with emotion. "He fell from high on the fireman's pole. He's been asking for ice packs and complaining of a sore ankle."
Ashley also added that Alfie could sometimes be a bit of a "drama boy." But as the morning progressed, Ashley's suspicions were confirmed. In a later update, she shared, "Two hours later, it turns out Alfie was just faking it and is perfectly fine. He even laughed about it with Ada." Despite the rollercoaster of emotions, Ashley managed to keep her cool and even joked about the situation with her kids.
Unfortunately, all of this was happening on a day when Ashley had a big meeting planned. She teased her followers with hints about her upcoming projects and ideas, while also mentioning that Ada would be joining her in the meeting. "Fingers crossed she makes a good first impression," Ashley joked.
Aside from being a star on This Morning and Made in Chelsea, Ashley also competed on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018. She spent 29 days in the Big Brother house and emerged as a fan favorite, although the series was eventually won by Courtney Act after 32 days. Over the years, Ashley has also made appearances on other popular shows such as This Week, The Wright Stuff, Kay Burley, The Jeremy Vine Show, and Steph's Packed Lunch.
