[TV's Fiona Phillips, 62, reveals she and her
husband were left in 'total shock' by her recent
Alzheimer's diagnosis after believing her
brain fog was just a symptom
of menopause - as the ex GMTV host vows to fight on
Fiona Phillips was diagnosed with Alzheimer's
after suffering from brain fog]


[She is pictured on GMTV alongside presenter
Eamonn Holmes in 1997

Ms Phillips originally saw the onset of
'crippling anxiety',
'confusion' and 'brain fog' at the end of 2021.
She saw a menopause specialist and
underwent hormone replacement therapy.
Some of her symptoms improved,
but the brain fog remained.]


[Fiona Phillips took part in the
BBC's Strictly Come Dancing in 2005]

Her meds are 3 Injections a day.
If she has the real drug as it's
a Placebo trial she is on.

With Fiona Phillips, she is such an obvious bubbly character, so the impact of the disease hits home much harder

[Sick scammers target dementia-hit Fiona Phillips:
TV host lost THOUSANDS of pounds from her bank account
after devastating Alzheimer's diagnosis - as
her family reveal they have tested their
sons to see if they have inherited killer gene
Fiona Phillips, 62, revealed she has Alzheimer's
for the first time this week
The ex-GMTV breakfast presenter first
thought symptoms were the Menopause]



[Shortly after Fiona Phillips was diagnosed
with Alzheimer's, she was scammed for
thousands of pounds before having to
painstakingly wait to see if her two
children had inherited a gene which
could make them more susceptible
to the disease.

Fiona, 62, revealed the devastating
dementia diagnosis, which killed both her mother and father,
this week in an interview alongside her husband,
This Morning editor Martin Frizell.]

She said she had 'brain fog' and I didn't know what that was so I looked it up.

It's utterly terrfying. You're constantly confused, cannot remember close friends' names, or even your wife's or husband's names.

A state of fear too that you're in some strange place you cannot escape from.

It's a living nightmare.
