Rosen out of IC unit

FORMER Children’s Laureate Michael Rosen is out of intensive care after “a long and difficult” 47 days, his wife has said.

The poet and author, 74, was described as “very poorly” when he was admitted to intensive care.

Rosen’s wife, radio producer Emma-Louise Williams, said on Twitter: “His recovery is continuing on the ward and will take time.”

The author’s books include We’re Going On A Bear Hunt.
