The television presenter, who recently lost his beloved dad, was dining in a Pizza Express following a procedure when he became unwell.
A statement released to Metro said: “Stephen has had an incredibly tough time over the past few weeks.

The statement continued: “In addition he had a procedure which took place yesterday (Wednesday).
“Following the anaesthetic that was administered, he had a few drinks which made him unwell and he was taken in to hospital as a precaution.”
A source told The Sun that the presenter was checked over by medics at the restaurant and was taken to hospital as a precaution.
“He’s so grateful for the care he received, and is mortified that he had such an awful — and public — reaction to the anaesthetic,” the source added.
The 47-year-old is now back at home recovering.
