The mother of Sussex-based glamour model Jordan is today in a stable condition after suffering a suspected heart attack.

Amy Price, 51, is undergoing tests at the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton after falling ill at the weekend.

Jordan cancelled appearances at the V2003 Festival in Chelmsford and a nightclub on the Isle of Wight to be by her mother's side.

Mrs Price, from Brighton, is expected to stay in hospital at least until the end of the week.

A hospital spokeswoman said she was doing well.

Nigel Chapman, 55, from Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, is due to be sentenced by Brighton magistrates on Wednesday for pursuing a course of conduct which amounted to the harassment of Mrs Price at her home.

He admitted the charge when he appeared at Brighton magistrates on July 2.

Magistrates were told Chapman used Mrs Price as a vehicle to attempt to get in contact with the model.
