Gogglebox star Shaun Malone has revealed he's undergone brain surgery, as he shared a health update from his hospital bed on Thursday.

The reality star, 31, had previously shared how a life-threatening infection during his teenage years left him with 'brain damage' after he spent a few weeks in a coma.

Shaun revealed on Wednesday that he was recovering in hospital after undergoing surgery as he posted a snap of his head stitches.

The star has appeared on Gogglebox alongside his parents Julie and Tom Senior since 2014.

He captioned the post: 'Heatwave is a terrible time to be stuck in hospital until Friday. Brain surgery is deffo not the highlight of my year.'
