Iconic Home and Away actress Lynne McGranger recently took to Instagram to share an update on her health following a major operation at the end of August. The 71-year-old is best known for her role as Irene Roberts in the beloved Australian soap opera. In her post, Lynne shared a photo of herself in a hospital bed and explained that she is now in recovery after having her overactive thyroid removed.
For those who may not know, an overactive thyroid occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much of the thyroid hormones. This gland, located in the neck, plays a crucial role in regulating body temperature and heart rate. When there is an excess of these hormones, it can lead to symptoms such as mood swings, difficulty sleeping, and weight loss.
Lynne has been a part of the Home and Away family since the early 90s and has captured the hearts of viewers with her portrayal of Irene. As expected, fans were quick to send their well wishes and support for her speedy recovery. In her post, Lynne expressed her gratitude towards the amazing team at the Mater Hospital North Sydney for making her surgery a smooth process. She also gave a special shoutout to specific individuals who played a significant role in her care.
In true Lynne fashion, she ended her post with a touch of humor, joking about sharing "scar spam" in the future. But her post wasn't just about her health, she also shared some exciting news for soap fans. Lynne invited readers to join the Metro's WhatsApp Soaps community where they can get access to spoiler galleries, must-watch videos, and exclusive interviews. All they have to do is click on the link and select "Join Chat." She also reminded fans to turn on notifications so they never miss out on the latest spoilers.
As expected, Lynne's post received an outpouring of love and support from her fellow industry stars and fans. Last year, she was among the many cast members celebrating Home and Away's 35th anniversary. When asked about her time on the show, Lynne couldn't help but gush about the incredible experiences and people she's met over the years. Her love for Home and Away was evident, and she wished the show a happy birthday.
