A star of the Australian version of Gogglebox has been left in “immense pain” after fracturing her spine in a horror accident.

Isabelle Silbery is one of the participants in the Aussie version of Channel 4’s smash hit show where she takes in the latest TV offerings and casts her opinions and shares observations – as well as providing some insight into her personal life. The reality star appears on the show alongside her infant daughter, Ruby, and her mum, Kerry.

Recently, Isabelle enjoyed a luxury trip to the exotic paradise island of Fiji alongside her husband, Alex Richards. While on the island, which is located in the South Pacific Ocean, the couple undertook a horse riding trip on the remote Turtle Island.

But disaster struck when the pair were adventuring around – and the Gogglebox expert was thrown from her horse and suffered a serious injury. She was miles from help and ultimately had to be helicoptered to hospital where doctors performed tests that showed the extent of the mum’s injuries.
