The former 'Hollyoaks' actress was rushed to hospital last week and put on oxygen, and she tested positive for COVID-19, but the 28-year-old star appears to be on the mend.

Stephanie, who is still in hospital, wrote on her Instagram Stories: "After the worst pain I've ever been in, I'm Getting there now, Love to you all. (sic)"

The star - who played Sinead Shelby in the Channel 4 soap - updated her fans on Monday (05.07.21) to say she was going to have a camera put down her as doctors tried to figure out what was wrong, and admitted she was "sick of being in pain".

She said: "Thanks for all your messages.

"Hopefully when I get the camera down today that'll figure out a lot of stuff that's going on.

"But yeah, COVID has been absolutely horrific.

"I think yesterday was the worst day yet.

"I'm going to just focus now on getting better.

"I'll let you all know how I'm getting on when I'm feeling a lot better.

"I'm anxious because I'm getting the camera put down today, but hopefully that'll figure out what's causing all the pain and that.

"I'm alright, I'm just in pain and I'm sick of being in pain now."

Over the weekend, Steph said she had been suffering from "severe" chest pains, and last Thursday (01.07.21), the star took to her Stories from her hospital bed while wearing an oxygen mask.

She said at the time: "So last night I had a bit of a headache before bed, and my sinuses.

"I woke up so ill. I had to call an ambulance basically, and then I tested positive for COVID-19. I feel like I've been run over.

"The worst part is my skin. I can't touch my skin, it's killing me. I'm just in so much pain.

"Oh my god, it's horrible. And it just happened so quick. I basically woke up and couldn't move.

"I've never had sore skin before, so I thought, 'Well, this isn't like a chest infection.' Normally, I suffer with my chest. I feel rotten."
