Mrs Hinch says 'I've never felt a fear like it' as she announces son's diagnosis amid rush to hospital

Mrs Hinch has opened up to her followers about the extent of her son's recent ill health as she shares his rare diagnosis. Last week, the influencer, whose real name is Sophie Hinchliffe, shared how her young son, Ronnie, had suffered a terrifying health scare.

Sophie, who is also mum to younger son Lennie, went on to explain at the time, "Ron's temp spiked to over 40 and his neck was swelling, limited head movements, I couldn't keep meds or fluids in him. We were taken to A&E and sent home with antibiotics and it just didn't feel right. My gut told me no. So after phoning 111 we were taken back in and thankfully admitted.

"Since having IV antibiotics we are seeing a really really slow improvement but we will be in here for a little longer yet, as we need to get his temperature satisfactory and need the antibiotics to kick in."

However, after a long period of silence on her usually active social media account, Sophie has returned with an update saying her three-year-old son was diagnosed with Kawasaki disease and admitted she had "never heard" of it until she was told it was what her young boy had.

Sharing a string of pictures of Ronnie during his lengthy stay in the hospital, Sophie penned a message to her 4.7 million followers. "FINALLY. 'We can go home now Mummy' Ron, you are SO brave, SO strong, SO loved and just beautifully unique darling boy," she started the caption of her post.

"We have spent the past 10 days living whats felt like a real life nightmare. But I just wanted to thank you all for so many kind messages and update you all. Ron’s temp spiked 40 at home, I phoned an ambulance. Ron was admitted and IV antibiotics started but NOTHING was
