Concern is mounting for much-loved Aussie star Grant Denyer after the Celebrity Name Game host took to Instagram last week to reveal he is bedridden once more.
“Me and [wife] Chezzi have both been crook as dogs,” Grant told fans before explaining he was a suffering a cryptosporidium infection of the bowel as a result of a parasite.

It follows a challenging 2019 that has seen the Denyers rushing to the emergency ward on several occasions. In March, Chezzi, 39, and the couple’s daughters Sailor, eight, and Scout, three, were left fearing for Grant after he suffered a ruptured disc in an accident on their Bathurst property.

And it’s not just Grant, 41, who has been rushed to the ER. Shortly after the star’s farming accident, Sailor suffered from a broken wrist. And just last week, as both Grant and Chezzi battled their own illnesses, Scout was in hospital to have her tonsils removed.
