Max George underwent life-saving heart surgery last year, but Maisie Smith has admitted that he still has “hard days.”
When The Wanted star Max George was rushed into hospital last December after he “turned blue”, many were left fearing the worst. But 11 months on, the singer appears to be doing better than expected as he just completed the American leg of The Wanted 2.0 tour, alongside bandmate Siva Kaneswaran.
Since falling ill with a heart condition, Max, 37, has done his best to take his Instagram followers on his journey. But in a recent interview, former EastEnders actress Maisie Smith, who is also Max’s girlfriend has shared an update on his health.
He’s getting better all the time, she told The Sun. He was able to complete this tour, which is amazing because it is obvious what he wants to do. Although he still has difficult days and better days, it’s encouraging to see him perform.
She continued, “I went out to New York on my week off and watched him perform in front of thousands of people, and it’s nice to see him do that now that he’s had a year.”
“He’s doing well, I guess.” It’s really nice to see him doing what he was born to do because no one knew what was going to happen this time last year,” she said.
Max and Maisie first locked eyes while competing on Strictly Come Dancing five years ago and further cemented their relationship during the Strictly arena tour.
In 2022, the couple announced their romance and soon their friendship turned into a love story.
Many people were concerned about their 13-year age gap when they first started dating. And while Ranvir Singh was on Lorraine in August, Ranvir Singh posed the question that everyone was asking.
Maisie responded to the whispers by saying, “We’re so close, both my family and your family. While we’ve been through some difficulties, Max has been there for my family and myself. We don’t care about things like that, Max continued.
Two years ago, the pair faced huge criticism after their pregnancy prank backfired on them. In one of their Instagram stories, Max and Maisie are seen standing in front of a mirror, showing off what looked like a baby bump.
They teased their fans, saying, “We have some really exciting news. She used a red hearty emoji to cover her bump in the first post.
However, she removed the emoji and wrote, “I just had the best five course meal of my life,” claiming that she had a “food baby.”
