Sunday evening’s episode of ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ showed the startling moment Omarosa Manigault suffered an asthma attack during the crew’s game of bowling.
On Saturday, following her loss to fellow castmate Marissa Jaret Winokur, Manigault began having difficulties breathing.
The former political aide was seen struggling to keep her composure as she rushed to pick up her inhaler.
‘I have a terrible sense of balance and my equilibrium has always been off so i knew I was going to struggle,’ Manigault said during the episode.

‘I couldn’t breathe,’ she said. ‘It’s really really difficult to breathe. I knew I had to act fast or I was in big trouble with my athsma.’
Manigault was shown leaving the bowling room as she talked about her concern of being axed from the show.
‘This is not the way i want my ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ experience to end,’ she added.
The castmates learned she had been hospitalized after the game ended – sparking concern about her well-being and whether she would be returning.
Toward the end of the episode, Ross Mathews opened a letter written for the crew.
The note said: ‘Omarosa has been taken to the hospital to be treated for an asthma attack.’
Manigault returned to the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ house later. She had been absent from the television show for an estimated 19 hours before returning to the Big Brother property.
When she returned later on, Manigault said: ‘It was a really rough night. I was admitted to the hospital. We were able to get my asthma under control. It was a really scary experience. Thank God I am back in the game.’
Initial reports indicated that Manigault had suffered a head injury after being hit by a ball during a spinning competition that involved bowling.
But a representative for CBS later said that Manigault was taken to the emergency room after experiencing complications relating to the breathing disease, according to Page Six.
‘Omarosa has returned to the Celebrity Big Brother house after receiving medical attention last night and today for an asthma attack,’ the rep said in the statement.
In Friday’s episode, two cast members were seen discussing Omarosa’s absence while live feeds were down.

In a nighttime conversation Marissa Jaret Winokur was seen gushing about the aftermath of a competition to fellow contestant Ross Mathews.
‘Ross all I’m going to say is this is hilarious that you and I knocked out those people,’ Marissa said to Ross.
‘And Omarosa had everything to lose… I mean I put her in the hospital…she’s gonna be okay,’ she added.
Earlier in the conversation Ross asked: ‘Is she gonna be back?’
‘I don’t think so,’ Marissa replied.
The pair then began to discuss Christmas Abbott, a contestant on a previous season, who was taken to the hospital for a broken foot and was still able to return to the show, meaning Omarosa would likely return.

The news follows Omarosa’s tearful breakdown recounting her time working for President Trump on Thursday’s episode.
She trashed him saying she ‘would never vote for him again in a million years’.
The Trump-aide turned Trump-hater compared her relationship with the president to that of housemate Keshia Knight Pulliam – who played the lovable Rudy on the hit family sitcom ‘The Cosby Show’ – with Bill Cosby.
‘Only you know your interwork and relationship to Mr Cosby,’ Omarosa told Keshia.
‘That’s the same thing with me and Mr Trump.’
‘It’s not something that can be minimized,’ she added.
Keshia replied: ‘It’ comparing apples to oranges.’
‘It’s a different situation because this man is running our country and being a voice of a whole country of people,’ she added.
