Big Brother legend sparks concern after suffering from ‘burn out’ just weeks after wedding
A BIG Brother legend has sparked worry after revealing they are suffering from ‘burn out’.
Chanelle Hayes rose to fame on reality competition Big Brother back in 2007.
Aged 19 at the time, she stayed in the infamous House for over 60 days before her departure.
The star, now 36, revealed on social media that she is dealing with ‘burn out’.
Posting to her Instagram story, Chanelle wrote: “When you’re so burnt out you literally cannot form a thought but got a deadline so try to push through despite your whole body being in pain and stomach in knots.”
Chanelle married fiancé Dan Bingham in an intimate wedding ceremony back in June.
The pair walked down the aisle and said ‘I do’ a year after their engagement.
Chanelle, who is mum to Blakely, 12, and Frankie, five, from previous relationships, announced her engagement to Dan in May 2023.
However, it was reported that the model and businesswoman was left bedridden after her wedding as she battled ME and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
She shared a social media post at the time, writing: “And the post exam, post wedding CFS /ME crash we knew was finally coming has arrived.
“Pain relief, hot water bottle, fluids, and plenty of sleep for this wife.”
In a previous exclusive interview with The Sun, Chanelle outlined the details of living with chronic fatigue.
She said: “There are days I’ve slept for 14 hours and when I wake up in the morning I still haven’t got enough energy to brush my teeth or do my hair.
“It’s literally awful and so frustrating. I’ve found myself crying because I get so mad at how tired I get.
“I can’t understand why my body won’t let me do certain things.
“I’m a qualified personal trainer and love going to the gym, but I physically can’t go anymore. Once I go I’m out of action for about four days in bed.”
Prior to being formally diagnosed, Chanelle suffered with fatigue, as well as joint and muscular pain.
However, she had attributed the symptoms to her obesity.
She previously added: “I thought ‘I’m overweight, it’s my own fault, no wonder I’m tired all of the time and no wonder my joints are killing me.’
“Then as I started to lose weight I felt like the pain was getting worse and worse.”
Chanelle also hit back at a vile troll, who asked “What’s happened to your face’, on her wedding day photo.
She responded: “I was laughing and enjoying my wedding. Thanks for the rude question though.”
