The McFly singer's wife updated fans on her son's wellbeing

Danny Jones and wife Georgia Horsley had to rush their five-year-old son Cooper Alf Jones to hospital in Tenerife following a terrifying ordeal.

The McFly singer's other half took to Instagram to brand her son "brave" as she addressed the turmoil the family had faced.


Horsley revealed in a series of snaps that just moments before she and her family were due to set off home to the UK, the youngster fell ill.

"Sorry I left you all on a bit of a cliffhanger..." she said in a caption of her son at the airport.

She continued: "This little guy just before we were due to fly home got a bit sick... And when I say a bit sick...

"He pretty quickly went from this," she wrote alongside a snap of her son bedbound with a bucket before following it up with a picture of him on a hospital drip.

"To this," Horsley added on the third snap of her son receiving medical attention.

Praising her son, she added: "But my goodness he was so so brave."

The McFly star's spouse shared another snap of the child in his hospital bed as she penned: "I think had this been England it wouldn't of been quite as dramatic.

"But I guess they have to be so careful with dehydration in little ones in hot countries.

"He wasn't keeping water down so was pretty dehydrated and lethargic."

Luckily, the youngster was soon on the mend as Horsley concluded: "We obviously had to change flights, book our accommodation for longer and rearrange bits and bobs.

"But we have to make sure this little man was back to eating waffles and chocolate sauce before we were confident to fly.

"A bit of a stressful end to the holiday... but we're home now," Horsley confirmed.

Horsley and Jones welcomed their son back in January 2018.

The pair tied the knot in an adorable ceremony back in 2014.

While Jones is best known for his time in the boy band McFly and as a judge on The Voice Kids, Horsley is a former Miss England winner.

She bagged the title back in 2007 when she took part in the pageant.
