Irish actress Ruth Codd reveals she has had second leg amputation

Hi guys, so I have some good news and some bad news. Good news, we've had a full circle moment, I'm back making TikTok content in my parents' house, bad news, I can't do it in front of that lovely blue floral wallpaper anymore, due to the fact that, that room is upstairs, and I've just had my second below knee amputation. So unfortunately, those facilities are not available to me at the current moment in time, yes, so lots of unpack there for everyone involved.
