Ellie Taylor, the new presenter of Strictly Come Dancing spin-off It Takes Two, says she faced a health scare involving her baby son on the day leading up to a broadcast launch. Multiple reports state she was dealing with her child falling ill and was forced to leave work and act quickly.
Both outlets describe her rushing home from her commitments as her baby is taken to A&E. The Manchester Evening News frames the day as an “illness nightmare,” while The Mirror emphasizes her leaving work to respond to the situation. Each account reports that Taylor provides an update following the incident, but they focus more on the disruption to her schedule than on medical details.
The coverage aligns on the basic sequence of events—her baby becomes unwell, she responds immediately, and her son receives urgent hospital care—while differing slightly in wording and how the disruption to her plans is characterized. Neither source indicates further specifics about the illness beyond that it prompted an A&E visit.
