Laura Hamilton has been battling a blood disorder in private for years, and she was shocked to discover that a guest on the hit Channel 4 show had lost his sister to the same condition.
A Place In The Sun 's presenter Laura Hamilton has candidly discussed her fight against a rare blood disorder.
During an exclusive Facebook Live chat with the Daily Star, she shared insights into her health journey. Opening up about her condition, she told the publication: "I have something called ITP, Immune thrombocytopenia, which is low platelets count in my blood its quite an unknown disease." Reflecting on her awareness campaign, she continued: "I was like 'oh I shouldn't have done that because I'm gonna have bruises on my leg from ITP.'"
Unexpectedly, her struggle resonated with someone she met during filming: "Mark stopped and was like 'how do you know what ITP is?'" In addition, Laura's A Place In The Sun's co-star Jean Johansson has also experienced her own health concerns. She has been diagnosed with presbyopia, an age-related condition that impairs the ability to focus on close objects.
