First Dates’ Cici Coleman rushed to hospital in Bali amid illness

First Dates star Cici Coleman has been rushed to hospital in Bali after she was struck down by a mystery illness.

The Channel 4 actress, who recently opened up on the period she was homeless between jobs, had embarked on her travels around Indonesia when she started to feel poorly.

Unfortunately, the 35 year old reality TV beauty had come down with "Bali belly," which is a condition based on an upset stomach due to eating and drinking vastly different foods from your normal diet.

It is also caused by bacteria that can be found in contaminated food and water and lead to severe diarrhoea in some cases.


Cici's condition worsened and she struggled to enjoy her trip, ending up with the star needing an IV drip.

The condition can also lead to vomiting, as well as cramps and aches from an upset tummy.

Explaining the situation to her Instagram fans, Cici joked about her suffering.

"It's all fun and games until it gets you," she began in a video. "Currently laying in the medical centre somewhere in Bali.

"I've got Bali belly, which is a well-known thing here," the star continued, showing herself in a hospital bed.

Cici went on to show the medics helping her and an IV drip hooked up to her arm.

"There's so much bacteria in all the food here, it's kind of swept me off my feet a little bit," the TV star went on.

"I'm just hydrating on a drip and then hopefully I'll be back to my normal self."

Cici later thanked her fans for all the messages and well-wishes, as she said she felt "much better" after the drip.

"Chillaxing and taking it easy," the star added.

The First Dates star first appeared on the show back in 2015, playing one of the hosts and waitresses in the programme.

She has also had roles in various low-budget UK films, hopeful to keep working on her acting career.
