Christina Trevanion, known for her role on Bargain Hunt, recently shared an update on her health after an unexpected hospital stay. The 42-year-old auctioneer and TV presenter had previously worked at Christie's before opening her own auction house, Trevanion & Dean. She has also made appearances on various BBC programs as an expert in antiques and as an auctioneer, including Bargain Hunt, Antiques Road Trip, Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is, and Flog It!.
After a busy few months filming new seasons of her shows, Christina revealed that she spent some time in the hospital after falling ill. She shared a photo of herself in a hospital bed with an IV drip in her arm and expressed her relief to be starting anew after a rough month. "Adieu February and good riddance frankly!" she wrote. "An unexpected hospital stay meant an unusual opportunity to catch up on some good reading. Safe to say I was not a patient patient... but thanks to the TLC of some incredible nurses, I am now back in fine fettle."
She then added, "Roll on blustery March, your lighter nights and slightly longer days... Anyone else longing for some warmer weather??" Her fans flooded her with well wishes for a speedy recovery, with one commenting, "Blimey doesn't sound like fun. Hopefully on the mend! Get well soon," and another saying, "Hope you have a speedy recovery. Sorry to hear you've not been well. Take care x."
Christina has been a familiar face on Bargain Hunt since 2012 and has developed a strong bond with her co-stars over the years. Last year, she shared a throwback post wearing the same dress she had worn 12 years ago. After receiving comments from viewers about how she was "ageing backwards," Christina shared an "appreciation post" for her purple dress. "I love this dress, but not for the reasons you might think," she explained. "I wore this dress for my first ever Bargain Hunt auction, and I distinctly remember because I was surviving on Stat Maternity Pay, couldn't afford to buy anything new, and didn't have anything in my wardrobe that wasn't an elasticated tent or have baby sick all over it."
She continued, "So, I panic bought this dress for £14.99, second hand on eBay. When it arrived, I put it on and it was the first time in months that I actually felt human again, and could look in the mirror and recognise who was staring back, not the frumpy, sleep deprived new mum I was." She then shared how the dress serves as a reminder of her journey and the support she has received from her Bargain Hunt family. She also reassured new moms who are struggling with the challenges of motherhood that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
