At the time, the 32-year-old shared photos of her bloodshot eye on Instagram, which was caused by “hardcore vomiting”.
She wrote: “GREETINGS FROM MY SICK BED! So for Christmas this year I got myself a nice juicy bout of Covid-19.”
“I also have a very festive bloodshot eye from all the hardcore vomiting I did in hospital (swipe if you’re feeling brave)…”
“I can taste NOTHING, I have a cough to rival a Dickensian workhouse orphan boy and the angel on top of my festive sickness tree is the TOOTHACHE from my gnarly little wisdom teeth at the back there.”
Sophie added: “But self pity is such a drag and we’re all fed up right? So how are we all doing? What is everyone finding to cheer themselves up?”
“If you’re feeling low or at the end of your tether, please know you are not alone. You can join my gang. Comment below and let’s cheer each other up.”
