Studio 10 host's mystery health scare

Studio 10 Host Tristan MacManus has revealed he has been absent from the morning show following a secret health battle.

The 40-year-old star, who is married to model and actress Tahyna Tozzi, revealed he has been suffering from a bad knee, muscle spasms in his chest, and three disc bulges in his neck causing pain.

“I’ve been quiet as well as I didn’t really know what was going on, I’ve had a really bad knee,” he said.

“I had muscle spasms in my chest, which I thought was my heart. In my arm, I lost feeling in my arm for a couple of days... I almost had paralysis in my arm.

“I was running around Sydney seeing surgeons and specialists. I have three disc bulges in my neck and one pinched a nerve.”

He revealed on-air that he received a cortisone injection in his neck to help with the considerable amount of pain he was in.

“I've got a cortisone injection in my neck. It's great to be back and for my head as well. It's good to be back folks,” he explained.

Tristan, who joined Studio 10 in 2020, wth former co-host Sarah Harris, shared how much he missed the show during his absence and the struggles he's had to endure.

“I really missed you guys as well. It's been a hell of a couple of weeks, folks,” he said.
