‘Supernanny’ Jo Frost announces ‘life-threatening’ anaphylaxis diagnosis

“Supernanny” star Jo Frost is battling a “life-threatening” medical condition.

The 55-year-old TV personality announced over the weekend she’s been diagnosed with anaphylaxis.

“I’ve survived more anaphylactic shocks than I’m prepared to go into detail about right now,” Frost told fans in an Instagram video.

“I have anaphylaxis, a life-threatening medical condition to certain foods that will compromise my body so horrifically to the point of hospitalization,” Frost explained.

Anaphylaxis, according to the Mayo Clinic, is “a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction” that “can occur within seconds or minutes of exposure to something you’re allergic to.”

Frost continued: “Absolute millions of my community around the world, children and adults, live cautiously and anxiously navigating this journey with not nearly enough compassion, education and empathy from those who do not.”

“Today, everyone will know someone or someone who knows of one with anaphylaxis,” she went on. “If you ignore the severity of this medical condition, it’s as bad as shoving a loaded gun in my face.”

The British reality star stated that she’s “unapologetic” for her medical condition, adding, “I did not ask for it, and it does not define who I am and the impact that I make in the world daily.”

“But it does impact how I live my life daily, like the precautions I take, the energy I have to use to discern with hypervigilance,” Frost explained.

“By the way, I speak on behalf of those who also have celiac disease, too, because we are all not faddy eaters,” she continued. “I’m not looking to be treated special, I’m looking to be treated with the same dignity and attentiveness as you just showed others.”

Frost also declared that she doesn’t want “mumbling insults” or “passive-aggressive” from people who are unfamiliar with her condition.

“Get curious and learn more, because really, as mentioned before, we all know someone,” she concluded.
