Dannii Minogue was rushed to hospital on Saturday after suffering from stomach pains, it has been revealed.
The singer, who has baby Ethan with her partner Kris Smith, was said to be doubled up in pain before seeking medical help.
Doctors diagnosed her with acute appendicitis and rushed her in for emergency surgery which she underwent within two hours of arriving at the West London hospital.
She had spent this week under 24-hour care but is now convalescing at home after being discharged yesterday.
A source told The Sun: "Dannii had an onset of extreme pain at the weekend and was rushed to hospital.
"The doctors managed a quick diagnosis so it was decided she should have her appendix taken out there and then.
"They managed to operate on her very soon after she arrived so she was out of the woods quickly, but obviously it was a huge shock to her system and she spent several days recovering.
"Obviously it has been tough as she has baby Ethan to care for her. Kris has been holding the fort."
A spokesman for the 39-year-old said: "Dannii was taken into hospital on Saturday with pains in her stomach.
"She was diagnosed with acute appendicitis and had an emergency operation to remove her appendix. She is now convalescing."
