Kelly Brook has revealed her horror “ordeal” after taking part in the London Marathon
The actress, 45, was among the many celebs who ran in the annual event last weekend. Kelly was joined by her husband Jeremy Parisi and she managed to complete the long-distance race in just over six and a half hours.
But it seems the event took its toll on Kelly as she has now revealed that she was rushed to hospital after the marathon.
Kelly Brook reveals ‘ordeal’ after London Marathon
On Monday (April 28) Kelly appeared on her Heart Drive show where she revealed she suffered a “broken foot” following the marathon.
“I went for a post-marathon scan on my foot today,” the actress said.
She added: “I’ve been following Jenni Falconer who also ran the London Marathon at the weekend. She’s all strapped up in a boot, someone stamped on her foot and cracked a bone.
“My foot looked a bit like hers, so I sent her a picture, and she said ‘go get an X-ray!’ Well, I’ve walked to three hospitals to be told I’ve got a broken foot. I was like I could have told you that at hospital number one!”
Kelly Brook rushed to A&E in wheelchair
Kelly – who is now wearing a medical boot on her foot – also uploaded a photo to her Instagram Story of the medical boot.
Recalling the stress she endured to initially get a diagnosis, she added: “Oh, he wheeled me out to the road. And then just offloaded me. And I had to hobble across the road to another hospital who then didn’t have an MRI.”
Kelly continued: “Oh, it’s been a whole ordeal! The only thing they did wheel me to is a cashier so I could pay for it!
“So, it seems that I’ve got a stress fracture which is quite common with first time marathon runners because we don’t know what we’re doing. So, I’m in a boot and it looks like I’ll be in a boot for six weeks. But I’ve got a medal!”
