Kyle Sandilands, 50, ‘could die instantly’ as he reveals shock diagnosis caused by stress – despite his efforts to lose weight
Kyle Sandilands has long been open about his health problems over the years.
And the radio presenter, 50, revealed his latest worrying diagnosis on The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Thursday.
Kyle said his doctor was ‘very worried’ about him because his ‘blood pressure is through the roof’ and warned he could ‘die instantly’.

Kyle explained he’d been trying to eat healthy lately and had even lost six kilograms, dropping from 145kg to 139kg.
‘I went to the doctor yesterday and the doctor is very worried. I’m on all these heavy blood pressure medications because I’m a maniac,’ Kyle said.
‘Blood pressure is still through the roof. He was very angry.
‘The doctor said, “Imagine the garden hose and we’re putting fire hydrant pressure through it – the nozzle in this case will be in your brain [and] your blood vessels will disintegrate and you will instantly die.”‘

Kyle said the doctor had told him he needed to instantly de-stress to control his blood pressure.
But he can’t de-stress because he’s worried about a close friend’s wife who is pregnant and unwell in hospital.
He revealed his doctor had even asked about his drug use, but Kyle reassured him he hadn’t touched cocaine in a long time.

His co-host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson said she was concerned for Kyle, remarking: ‘Weight goes hand in hand with health.’
She said she didn’t want him feeling stressed at work and warned the show’s producers to be on their A-game.
‘We have to keep you calm and healthy,’ she added.

Kyle revealed in May last year he could die any minute due to his sky-high blood pressure.
‘I could die – that means at any stage at any time day or night,’ he said during an interview with 60 Minutes.
In October 2019, he told The Daily Telegraph he was eating healthier, and had stopped drinking excessive amounts of alcohol and taking drugs.
‘Now, if I did one line [of cocaine], I’d be dead in five seconds,’ he said.
