The 35-year-old wife’s Erin, took to social media to share the news on Tuesday.
Sharing a picture of the couple’s daughter asleep in a hospital bed, Erin said Mia-Rose “took a turn for the worst” on Monday after being “a little unwell” for a few days.
She added that the one-year-old is “thankfully doing much better”.
An Instagram story on Tuesday morning said: “Mia-Rose. She’s been a little unwell the last few days and then yesterday she took a turn for the worst.
“There’s nothing worse as a parent seeing your baby so unwell and fighting so hard to breathe but thankfully she’s doing much better and is in the right place.”
The Wrexham winger and wife Erin have four children – Allie May, James Jr, Willow Ivy and Mia Rose.
They welcomed their youngest in February 2023.
Last year, the Republic of Ireland star revealed that he had been diagnosed with autism.
Speaking at the time, he said: “I see so many small traits in her that I see in myself. So I decided to go and get an ASD assessment.
“It’s been a bit of a journey and now having a diagnosis I feel it’s time to share it, for the week that’s in it.”
He also revealed his reasons for making his diagnosis public, referring to World Autism Acceptance Week writing: “I have debated for a while going public in sharing this as I’ve done this for Willow-Ivy, to let her know that I understand and that being autistic won’t and should never hold her back from reaching her goals and dreams.”
