- BY JANINE YAQOOB

JAMES Hewitt is set to be released from hospital after recovering from a heart attack and stroke.

Princess Diana’s former lover was fighting for his life after falling ill almost seven weeks ago but is now “doing much better”, friends revealed.

A source said: “He’s been sat up in bed, fully dressed.

“He is even wearing a shirt and tie. He has had enough of being in hospital and is making that known to the staff. He is still on antibiotic­s but is expected out in the next week.”

The Sunday Mirror revealed in early May how the ex-army officer, 58, needed emergency surgery after having a heart attack at his Devon home.

It is understood he was waiting to see an NHS consultant for treatment.
