Oti Mabuse opens up about the pain of not holding his premature daughter | Culture

I’m a celebrity… Get me out of here! contestant Oti Mabuse recalled the “hell” she experienced when she was unable to hold her newborn premature daughter.

The former Strictly Come Dancing professional, 34, opened up to Reverend Richard Coles on Tuesday’s (November 26) edition of the ITV show.

Mabuse recalled that her daughter was kept in a neonatal incubator and had to use her voice to connect with her newborn instead of touching her.

“It’s hell being in hospital, hearing those sounds, not seeing your baby’s eyes for a week, it’s hell constantly seeking advice from the doctors,” she told Coles.
