MARK Wright feared his dad would die every day for two weeks as he battled coronavirus in hospital as he makes an emotional plea to fans.
The former Towie star, 33, begged listeners to his Heart radio show to follow the rules to get life back to normal. Mark opened up about how the virus has struck his family - with his dad having just left the hospital after testing positive on New Year's Day and his two uncles seriously ill.
Speaking on his Heart Radio evening show, the footballer said: "I want my life back. I want my family to be well again. I don’t want my family to have to worry anymore.
I don’t want you to worry anymore. "If you want to get your life back, the only way this will happen is if we obey by the government rules.
