The presenter, according to her sister-in-law Rachel, suffered a sizeable bleed on the brain.
The mum-of-two underwent surgery to put stents in her brain and is said to be recovering in the best care possible.

“Unfortunately, a week ago she took unwell and it turned out to be a sizeable bleed on the brain which was two aneurisms.”
Rachel added: “Lynne is receiving the best care possible and starting her long journey to recovery.
“She has two young boys to care for and being ill will impact the family financially.
“We know she has brought a lot of joy to listeners over the years and hope they will want to support Lynne in a time of real need.
“She is very thankful for all the support online and messages and she is getting stronger every day.
“I know she is counting the days until she can return to the radio.”
Bauer Media, which owns a number of the stations Hoggan presents on, said she is a “much-loved” part of its team and wished her a speedy recovery.
