He was taken to hospital and his family said he is currently “stable, but still very poorly”.

This morning his daughter Tamzin told the Post: “At the moment he is stable and things have improved ever so slightly, which is giving us hope.

“But he is still very poorly and not out of the woods. He’s fighting a nasty infection and we’re keeping our fingers crossed.”
