Camilla Thurlows Daughter Faces Health Challenges

has revealed that her non-verbal daughter Nora has been experiencing 'seizure-type events and unexplained falls' as she gave a challenging health update on Instagram on Monday. 

The former Love Island star, 35, shared last year that her middle child has slower development with walking and talking, and revealed that she is autistic.

And now in a new update, Camilla stressed that she and husband  have been really 'worried' about their little girl as she awaits an EEG. 

An EEG is a non-invasive medical test that records the electrical activity of your brain using small sensors attached to your scalp. It is primarily used to diagnose and monitor brain conditions, most notably epilepsy, by detecting abnormal brain waves or seizure activity. 

Alongside the health update, the TV personality, who also shares daughter Nell, five, and son Brodie, two, with Jamie, posted a sweet video of four-year-old Nora beaming as she walked through a field.

She wrote: 'Nora’s greatest skill is her ability to communicate exactly who she is without any need for words. 

'That’s why everyone who meets her ends up with a soft spot for her, touched by the openness of her beautiful smile and her gentle soul. 

'We’ve seen that not only in the real world, but here too, where we feel incredibly lucky that so many of you have met her with love, understanding and joy.

'Because of that, we felt we should update you on what’s been happening and why we’ve been a little quiet lately. 

'Nora has started to experience some seizure-type events alongside an increasing number of unexplained falls. She was referred and seen within weeks by a lovely NHS paediatrician and will have an EEG as soon as possible.'

Camilla added that despite being 'worried' for her little girl she is thankful that her family and Nora's nursery have created a 'safe' environment for her. 

She continued: 'Naturally, we’ve been processing the worries that come with not knowing what the answers might be. In the meantime, though, we wanted to reassure you that, for the most part, she is her usual happy self. 

'Understandably, she’s a little more cautious at the moment and seeking lots of connection, but she is absolutely surrounded by love and support from her sister and brother, our family and friends, and especially her nursery. 

'We are incredibly grateful for the way they have created such love, safety and security for her during these moments, and for their detailed recording of events, which I’m sure played a huge part in Nora receiving such a prompt referral ❤️'

Camilla concluded: 'Above all, Nora, as always, is facing these challenges the same way she faces everything else, leading with love, warmth and joy. 

'She lights up our world and brings happiness to everyone who knows her, and wherever she goes, we will follow'.
