O’Donnell, 52, who is a mother of five, revealed recently that she had undergone weight loss surgery after nearly dying from a heart attack in 2012. Speaking in February, she said: “I did it to save myself.”

Earlier this week, she criticised Lindsay Lohan’s OWN reality series Lindsay, describing the show as “a tragedy on every level”.
