‘The doctors at the hospital agreed that we need to find out why she keeps getting so sick’

Watching their little girl posing for the camera, professional dancers James and Ola Jordan can’t help feeling emotional.
As robust as she seems now, it’s hard to shake off the knowledge that a few short weeks ago, the former Strictly Come Dancing professionals were sitting anxiously by Ella’s bedside after the three-year-old was rushed to hospital with a high temperature and found to be suffering from pneumonia and tonsillitis.
Posting a photograph on Instagram of his “little warrior” with an IV drip in her arm, James, 45, explained that Ella had been ill for five days before she was diagnosed and taken in for treatment, following two trips to A&E.
It wasn’t the first time she had that medics may have identified the reason their daughter seems to be so susceptible to picking up bad chest infections and nasty colds: they fear she has a hole in her heart.
