2025 Strictly star Thomas Skinner has shared the heartbreaking news that his twins have been rushed to the hospital.

Last weekend, Thomas and dance partner Amy Dowden were the first couple to be voted off the hit BBC show this year.

However, in a more unfortunate life update, the former Apprentice contestant has admitted he’s been having a bad time.

Thomas Skinner’s twins rushed to hospital

In a post shared to X, formerly Twitter, this morning (October 9), Thomas Skinner wrote: “We are having a proper [bleep] time recently. My twins have spent all night in the hospital.”

Thomas shares twin daughters, Roma and Darla, two, with his wife, Sinead Chambers. They also have a son, Henry, five.

“Thank you to the wonderful NHS for looking after them. Back home with them now. They’ve both now had 2 fits each and it is so so scary,” he continued, adding the red heart emoji.

‘There is just nothing we can do’

“So sorry to hear that your beautiful girls have been unwell. I’m glad that the NHS were able to make them well enough to return home. Sending you all hugs xx,” one user wrote.

“Praying their both alright mate, scary time, glad your all back safe home now though, that’s the important thing,” another person shared.

“So sorry to hear that Tom. Sending love to you and the family. Look after yourself,” a third remarked.

“Ahh mate that’s awful! So glad they are ok, but you’re right that is proper scary. It’s horrible being so helpless as a parent too when your kids aren’t well, there is just nothing we can do and that’s hard,” a fourth said.

“This is awful, a parent’s nightmare. Praying for your children’s speedy and full recovery. Children are tougher than we think, but it doesn’t relieve the worry,” a fifth user expressed.
