Chelsea Star's Mum Offers Liver, He Refuses

Sam Vanderpump, known for Made in Chelsea, is currently on the waiting list for a life-saving liver transplant. At 28 years old, he received a devastating diagnosis of end-stage liver disease. Doctors informed him that without a transplant, he had only a four-year life expectancy. Despite this harrowing health crisis, Vanderpump married his wife, Alice, and they welcomed their son, Marmaduke. Their personal journey has been captured in a two-part E4 special, Made in Chelsea: Sam Vanderpump's Story. In a recent interview, Vanderpump shared that he refused his mother's offer to donate part of her liver. He explained his decision stemmed from not wanting to subject a loved one to the risks associated with the procedure, even though he acknowledged the minimal risk to a living donor. His brother is currently undergoing tests to see if he is a suitable match. Vanderpump expressed hope for a future call with news of a compatible liver.
