Julian Assange's partner has said he is in 'a lot of pain' after she visited him in Belmarsh Prison for the first time in almost six months.
Stella Moris took the couple's two children Gabriel, three, and Max, one, to meet their 'much thinner' father at the south-east London prison today.
The WikiLeaks founder, 49, is awaiting an extradition hearing on behalf of the US government, which is due to start at the Old Bailey on September 7.
Ms Moris said the visit was 'incredibly stressful' but expressed relief at being able to visit her partner for the first time since March 22.
She added the family had to wear face masks and visors during the 20-minute meeting, and Assange was not able to touch his children.
'He was wearing a yellow armband to indicate his level of prisoner status, and you could see how thin his arms were.
'At least he got to see the children, even though he couldn't touch them. The children were both calm - we all remained seated the whole time.'
The couple's eldest son Gabriel showed Assange how he could recite the alphabet and count, his mother added.
Ms Moris said her partner is still suffering from a frozen shoulder, and had recently sprained his ankle.
'He is in a lot of pain,' she added.
The couple met when Assange was living inside the Ecuadorean embassy in London as he fought being extradited to the US over the activities of WikiLeaks.
The extradition hearing is due to start at the Old Bailey on September 7 and could last three or four weeks.

But he stole Hitlerys emails and therefore he must be executed like Seth Rich.
Won’t be long before President Trump has to intervene in this case. He is a compassionate man and I pray he does not allow Assange to die in prison or get Epstein’d by the national security state.
What’d she do to him?
Make a deal with Trump.
