Robert Rinder was all smiles as he hit the red carpet following a 'life-changing' trip to hospital. Earlier this week the TV star, known to many as Judge Rinder thanks to his ITV show, was back at the helm of Good Morning Britain for his latest stint hosting the show.
However, just hours later Rob took to Instagram after the cameras stopped rolling as he was left undergoing an operation in hospital. Sharing pictures from his stint on the news programme, the 44-year-old also posted images of him in a medical gown while laying in a hospital bed.
"Started the day holding politicians to account @gmb then meeting @lulukc and @therealsambora, ended it having a prolapsed disc in my back healed," Rob penned alongside the post. "The challenge of life is that it can change at any moment….Hold on to joy wherever you find it…(feeling much better now.. thank you incredible medical staff) x."
And fans were soon sending their support. But while Rob hasn't given an official update, he did make his social media return as he shared an Instagram story of a bunch of roses that he had been gifted for Valentine's Day by singer Lulu.
And he has been spotted in high spirits as he joined Alan Carr at The Reluctant Traveller European premiere. Rob was snapped sporting a navy blue shirt which he paired with a pair of black trousers while Alan opted for a brown blazer which he wore over a paisley-patterned shirt with a pair of neutral-toned chinos.
The pair showed they are good pals as they mucked about on the red carpet and were snapped laughing between one another before Rob planted a kiss on the comedian's cheek.
During his earlier stint on GMB, Rob found himself being praised by viewers after he took deputy leader of the Labour Party Angela Rayner to task over whether her party would be committed to reducing government spending.
At one point in the interview, Rob interrupted Angela as he said: "I’m so sorry, I’m going to get into terrible trouble on social media, I don’t really care – these are not difficult questions." Then at another point, the criminal barrister also snapped: "Cleaning up politics is important, I'm talking over you Angela Rayner because we don't have time, it's not a party political broadcast.
And viewers were quick to praise his shut down of the MP. @sonya_grattan tweeted: "#GMB well done Rob Rinder - keep trying to pin down those politicians to get straight answers!" @SarahHarkin2 posted: "@GMB got to love Rob we don’t have time this is not a party political broadcast #gmb."
@Warzoid shared: "Rob Rinder, single-handedly restoring political balance to British network television on #GMB." @maxcottis added: "Please please convince Rob Rinder to take up a regular spot….finally a co-presenter worth watching!"
