Speaking to Access about visiting Jeremy, she said: "I expected to sit at his bedside and hold his hand while he moaned and groaned in pain and wasn't able to move.
"He was wheeling himself around, laughing with his friends. It's a miracle, a straight-up miracle. He's made of something really tough, that guy.
"You've always been able to see that in him. He is recovering incredibly, and I'm so grateful."
It's not just his physical fitness he's focusing on either, as he showed fans how he is dealing with improving his mental wellbeing.
