Rebekah Vardy’s Dancing On Ice partner Andy rushed to hospital after she ‘sliced his face open’ in gory accident
REBEKAH Vardy has revealed Dancing On Ice partner Andy Buchanan was rushed to hospital following a horrifying training accident.
Becky, 38, said Andy was rushed to hospital after she sliced open his face with her skate.
The celeb spoke ahead of her Dancing On Ice debut and revealed she injured the professional skater, who is also a talent scout for Cirque Du Soleil, admitting "it was awful".
She said: "I seem to be the only one who’s ended up hurting my pro, putting him in hospital.
"I do apologise. No, It was awful; I think I’ve just come to terms with scarring his face."
Explaining the accident, Rebekah added: "We were practicing a trick and we changed it slightly from something that we would normally do – and we did it on a daily basis and everything would go right and nothing would go wrong."
Becky, 38, debuted Andy as her partner in a cute selfie where she begs him to not "drop" her.
“On this occasion, it went very wrong and the back of my heel and my blade sliced his face open.
“He was fine. All he was concerned about was making sure that he could skate the next day, where I was not interested in that in the slightest, I just wanted to make sure that he was OK.
“It was quite scary. But it brings back the realisation that what we’re doing is really bloody dangerous, but he’s fine. It’s a bit dramatic but he’s OK.”
Off the rink, Jamie Vardy's wife is currently locked in a court battle with Coleen Rooney over claims she leaked stories to the press about her fellow WAG.
She has sued Coleen, 34, wife of ex-England and Manchester United legend Wayne, for libel after it was claimed Becky had leaked private information about Coleen to the Press.
Becky categorically denies leaking three stories planted by Coleen and also dismisses claims she is The Sun’s Secret Wag.
But Becky said she had no intention of quitting social media, despite the chaos that unfolded online last year.
She said: “I’ll never do that. I went through so much crap in my life being told I couldn’t do this or that.

"Now I would never allow someone I don’t know to control what I want to do.”
A spokesman for Coleen said she remains “confident” of successfully defending the libel case.
Charlotte Harris, of Becky’s legal firm Kingsley Napley, said: “The simple fact is that Rebekah Vardy did not leak Coleen Rooney’s private Instagram posts to the Sun and nothing can change that.”
