Michelle Heaton to have heart op

Liberty X star doesn't want to die at 27

Liberty X star Michelle Heaton has been told by doctors that she has a serious heart condition and may soon have to be fitted with a pacemaker.

The singer, who was referred to a heart specialist about blacking out last year, has had to face her own mortality at the age of 27 and has even discussed her funeral with husband Andy Scott-Lee.

'When you think every heartbeat is your last you have to have conversations about your funeral,' Michelle told the News of the World.

'I've talked to Andy about what to do if I die. I have been forced to have that conversation and talk about those issues with him.

Michelle suffers from palpitations that cause her heart-rate to fall.

'Every time it happens I think I'm going to die. It is just so scary,' she admits.
