"He overdosed on cold sore tablets and his liver function, because he did it for a full week, taking ten of these things and he said 'oh they're fine'.

"And he did it to me when I thought I felt a tingle and he said 'darling take six of these and you'll be fine' and you're only meant to take two."

Matthews and Williams were on holiday with their three children: Theodore, aged four, Gigi, three, and Otto, 15 months.

Williams said she was unsure if the cold sore tablets were the only reason for her husband being hospitalised, adding that the whole family was unwell.

Matthews and Williams have been married since 2018, when they tied the knot at the Made in Chelsea star's family estate in Scotland.
