She’s been in the world of showbiz for over five decades. But despite her success and longevity in the industry, it seems that Linda Robson still worries that her career could end at any minute.
During a recent episode of Loose Women, Linda received a health check live on air by a doctor, during which she voiced her concerns.
After getting a skin tag that she was worried about checked over – which turned out to be harmless – Linda confessed that she’s also putting off a knee-replacement operation as she fears not being able to work.
‘I fell off an electric scooter last year and I ended up on my knees with my bum in the air and my dress over my head,’ she said. ‘I’ve got to have a knee replacement but I keep putting it off, I’ve cancelled two appointments.’ And admitting that the reason she’s delaying it is because she doesn’t want to miss out on work, she continued, ‘I’ve said, “I can’t come in today, I’ve got work!” Because I’m frightened I won’t be able to work. I’m going to be laid up and that.’ So it’s clear that losing her beloved career is something that weighs heavily on Linda’s mind.
