BBC presenter Emma Willis discovers lifelong heart defect, undergoes surgery, and joins heart health campaign.
Emma Willis, a 49-year-old BBC Radio 2 presenter, learned she had lived with a congenital hole in her heart for 48 years after a routine check-up revealed an enlarged heart and an atrial septal defect, which she successfully treated with keyhole surgery.
She now supports a British Heart Foundation campaign to raise awareness of heart conditions, sharing her story alongside other survivors like Aimee Nicholls and her son Leo, who both have congenital heart defects, and Michelle White, who has endured multiple heart procedures and strokes.
The campaign features 65 red benches across the UK honoring survivors, with the BHF urging public support for heart health research and open conversations about heart disease.
