The EastEnders star's wife Victoria Bye has told all about the horror hospital dash after toddler Rufus, 2, ingesting the plant and his ‘tongue started to swell’

James Bye’s two-year-old young son was rushed to hospital after eating a 'seriously toxic’ plant.

The EastEnders star's wife Victoria Bye told of the terrifying situation on Instagram. She wrote: "More of a public service announcement than a post really but as we all know, life with kids is anything but predictable. So, after spending the night in hospital (I swear they’ll start charging us rent soon) after Rufus decided to snack on a plant in the garden — one I didn’t even know was dangerous. All hell let loose. (full video in next post – wouldn’t let me post here)."
