Miranda Hart couldn't get out of bed when she met new husband due to health trauma
TV star Miranda Hart shocked and delighted fans by revealing that she got married recently in secret - but it’s not the only revelation the actress has shared. The comedian and actress, 51, has revealed that she had been so ill when she first met her new husband that she was actually bed bound, and has candidly shared that her health trauma caused problems in her fledgling romance.
The star has revealed that she has been diagnosed with Lyme disease. She suffered with chronic fatigue as a result of the debilitating illness, and has revealed that she was so unwell that she couldn’t pick up simple everyday objects or leave the house because of it.
Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, The Mirror reports that the star said: "Unless you’ve had fatigue [like that], you don’t understand what literally not getting off the floor is."

Miranda explained: “I was basically bed-bound - and house-bound. There’d be times where I'd look at a glass of water, and think ‘I don’t know how to pick that up'. All anyone wants is to be heard, accepted, loved and seen… and when you’re not - particularly in a medical situation - it’s the worst."

Opening up about the ordeal, which she has detailed in her new book, I Haven’t Been Entirely Honest With You, she said: "I thought I need to research this whole wellness expertise and dialogue that's out there… But I was in bed at home alone, the doctors didn't know what to do with me and I couldn't have a cold plunge or go on a yoga retreat.”
She revealed: "So I thought what are the universal truths? So I did years of research, when I felt able to, and in the book there are 10 keys, which I call my treasures, to living well. And they've really genuinely [helped]. I feel like despite the suffering it came from, that I’m living a life of joy and meaning and fulfilment in a way I never have before. I feel like I know who I honestly am, in a way that I never knew I needed to, which is just incredible."
Miranda sent fans wild when revealed that she secretly got married to a mystery man. Announcing that she had tied the knot on the BBC’s The One Show yesterday, Wednesday 8 October, she said: "Someone's put a ring on it!”
Though the Call The Midwife star hasn’t spoken about the exact identity of her man, she has revealed some clues about him - including what he looks like and how they met.
In her new memoir, Miranda reveals that her hubby works as a building surveyor, and, he was actually the surveyor who worked on her house when it had mould in recent years.
She has also divulged that he has "salt and pepper grey hair" and "fine features.” Despite her keeping her new husband’s name top secret for now, she has also taken to social media to share a first glimpse of him in a loved-up video, while thanking fans for their well wishes.
