The Dublin-born singer spent much of last week in St Vincent’s University Hospital for a brief health scare.
The health scare came just days before she was set to celebrate her 51st birthday.
Although she didn’t reveal what caused her to end up in hospital, Imelda took time to thank all the hospital staff who cared for her.
Taking to her Instagram, Imelda shared pics of different staff who brought her food and kept her company during her stay.
She also showed the gorgeous bunch of flowers that were gifted to her during her stay.
Sharing the update with fans, she wrote: “So I ended up in St Vincent’s University Hospital last week for a few days.
“I’m fine now and healing well but I must say a huge thanks you to all the amazing people that took the best care of me.
“Absolute legends. (Pictures are a few of those legends). Forever grateful. Imelda X.
“P.s. I’m fine and resting and with all your warm good vibes flying my way I’ll be fighting fit for play rehearsals next week.”
Friends and fans of the singer flocked to her comment section to praise the hard-working nurses and to wish Imelda a speedy recovery.
RTE presenter Miriam O’Callaghan said: “They’re amazing! Like yourself Imelda. I hope you are now almost completely better. Sending you hugs.”
Poet Nikita Gill gushed: “So sorry to hear you’ve been unwell, Imelda, hope you recover well and quickly! x.”
Another fan added: “Get better Imelda May. We need your brilliance.”
BIG GIG
Recently Imelda was reunited with her ex-husband for a “back to her roots gig” in Las Vegas.
Imelda split with Darrel back in 2015 — after being married for more than 13 years.
Darrel, 55, and Imelda reunited on stage in early May in front of 10,000 punters at the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly weekend in the US.
Darrel told The Irish Sun: “I was delighted to be back up on stage playing with Imelda again.
“It was a special show where Imelda went back to her roots playing the rockabilly material she played ten years ago at the start of her career. Everybody loved it.”
