Gaz Beadle's wife praised as she shares heart surgery scars with inspiring post
Gaz Beadle 's wife has been praised online for publicly revealing her surgery scars.
Emma McVey, wife of the Geordie Shore original, told her fans to "never be ashamed of a scar" as they serve as a reminder of life's challenges, alongside revealing the physical scar across her chest thanks to her recent life-saving open-heart surgery.
The mum-of-two, 30, underwent an operation in January to fix three holes in her heart and to repair her tricuspid valve – which is the valve which sits between the heart's two right chambers.
Emma, who was diagnosed with three large holes in her heart in June 2021, was rushed in for another operation later the same month after her lung collapsed following the original open heart surgery.

"Day 2 I cried from the pain trying to take a deep breath in and cough, day 3 asking how I’ll ever be able to get myself out of bed.
"Here I am now, I left the house yesterday and watched the kids play outside on their bikes and I’ve never been happier.
"Don’t get me wrong, I’m yo-yoing like you wouldn’t believe, my emotions are so up and down, it’s gonna be a slow recovery but I am so excited to see where I am in just a few months time," she wrote.
