James Jordan’s father had seven seizures in one day

James Jordan’s father suffered seven seizures in one day.

The 42-year-old former ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ star is desperately worried for his beloved dad, who has already had two strokes and tested positive for Covid-19, and James revealed his father had a seizure while they were speaking on FaceTime.

Speaking to HELLO!, James explained: "Dad’s not good. I was on FaceTime to him this morning and he had a seizure during our conversation and it is absolutely horrendous to see, so that really upset me today.

"Yesterday he had around seven seizures and no one knows why… Today they’re sending him for a MRI. I think there needs to be a lot more to be investigated to work out what’s wrong, but I’m not a doctor.’

"It’s just really tough and my mum is really struggling at the moment and finding it really, really hard."

James previously begged his fans to pray for his father, following his second stroke.

He tweeted: "Unfortunately my dad has gone downhill possibly because no testing is done over the weekend Hopefully sending him for a scan today to see what’s going on. Please say another prayer for my dad as it seemed to work last time ."

James’ father was rushed to hospital in March after suffering strokes and seizures.

The star shared at the time: "Hi guys I’ve been in hospital since 7.30 this morning where my hero and dad was rushed in after having a stroke and seizures.

"Sitting with him now and I’m asking if you could all say a little prayer for him. I’m not ready to lose him!"

And there was more bad news for his dad as he was diagnosed with Covid-19 two weeks after being admitted to hospital.

James tweeted: "Just when you think things couldn’t get any worse!

"After being in hospital for nearly 2 weeks after his stroke my dad has now tested positive to coronavirus

"He is also fighting an infection he recently got in his arm (Cellulitis)… God, please give my dad a break. StayAtHome (sic)"
