He’s now preparing for a serious operation after his condition failed to improve.
Today former EastEnders star Maisie, 23, shared a sweet snap of her visiting her man in hospital, but The Sun can reveal she’s feeling torn due to her busy schedule.
Maisie is currently starring in a pantomime production of Beauty and the Beast at the Marlowe Theatre in Canterbury meaning she can’t be at Max’s side all the time.
An insider said: “It’s been a really worrying and distressing time for Max and Maisie.
“All she wants to do is be by his bedside day and night but she’s committed to her panto show and doesn’t want to let anyone down.
“She’s done her best to be able to visit him when hospital visiting hours allow, but it’s been a real struggle juggling everything.
“Max is on her mind 24/7 and she wants more than anything for him to be better as soon as possible.”
Max was admitted to hospital last week with heart issues and has been undergoing tests as doctors investigate what’s wrong.
In a recent post, he explained that a CT scan showed concerning results.
He said: “Had a little day trip today. Full cat scan on my heart. Not something I’d choose to do again!”

Max went on to share that he has been diagnosed with a 2:1 heart block, a condition where the heart’s electrical signals are disrupted.
He added his heart rate has remained stubbornly low for almost a week.
“Unfortunately my heart rate hasn’t picked up at all in almost a week,” he wrote.
“Because of this, we don’t have too much time to wait, so it looks like I’m going to be in surgery way quicker than the doctors first thought. I may even be home for Christmas!”
