As previously reported by WHO, the popular child entertainer revealed she pulled out of future Wiggles shows due to a surgery she underwent on Tuesday 17th of April for treating her endometriosis.

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, the 28-year-old revealed: “I have been in a lot of pain for the past couple of years.”

Watkins told the publication that it had been “difficult decision” to get the surgery in order to manage the pain of the chronic condition.
