Country music singer Lisa McHugh has told how her baby daughter spent 10 "horrendous" days in hospital after contracting respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).is a common, but highly infectious, respiratory virus that affects the breathing system, particularly in young children and older adults.

"You feel so helpless, and it's the most horrible feeling for a parent to go through, to not be able to fix what's going on or help," said Ms McHugh.According to the Public Health Agency in Northern Ireland, there have been more than 1,000 cases of RSV in infants under the age of one since 30 September 2024.About two thirds of the infants have been hospitalised.

An RSV vaccine has been available toin Northern Ireland since last September and is offered from 28 weeks into pregnancy.

In November 2024, Lisa McHugh's then four-month-old daughter Hallie caught a cold.

Her GP told her to monitor Hallie's symptoms and if the baby was feeding well, was having wet nappies and her temperature was okay, she could manage her at home.Initially, Tate presented himself as charming, but Ms Stern alleges that his behaviour quickly turned demeaning and threatening.

According to her claims, he referred to her as his "property" and subjected her to verbal abuse, calling her an "idiot", among other names.She described one incident in the Beverly Hills hotel in which he allegedly beat, choked and then threatened to kill her while they were having sex - an encounter that she says began as consensual.

"Tate began verbally degrading [the] Plaintiff as he routinely did - but this time it was much worse, more aggressive, and more violent," the lawsuit states.Ms Stern said in the complaint that he struck her in her face and head, and she cried for him to stop - alleging at one point the pressure on her neck nearly made her lose consciousness.
