Mercy Eke, the reality TV star, was hospitalised on Tuesday — a few hours after partying on a yacht.

In a Snapchat post, Eke shared footage of herself in a hospital bed, following an earlier video of her enjoying a yacht party with friends.

Although the reality star did not reveal her diagnosis, she urged her followers to cherish life and avoid negativity.

“Do not ever waste your time in anger, regrets, worries and grudges. Life is too short to be unhappy,” she wrote.

“Who would have thought that I will end up in a hospital barely 24 hours I was seen outside?

“I am just having different thoughts of what could have been the worst case. God, I thank you for your loving kindness. Life is so fickle. Good health is underrated.”
