TOWIE star Clelia Theodorou has revealed the extent of her horrific injuries she suffered after the tragic incident that killed her mum.
Earlier this month, the 28-year-old shared her heartbreak after her mum died in what is understood to be a car crash, which left her with “terrible injuries” in the accident back in May.
The TV star – who is currently 35 weeks pregnant – admitted she had never felt pain like it after she broke both her feet and legs in the accident.

Previously, the brave mum-to-be has shared pictured from her hospital bed with her legs wrapped in bandages while wearing post-operative knee braces.
Now, the reality star has posted a series of photos of her using a wheelchair after she underwent three surgeries with a fourth one set to take place later this year.
Updating her fans on the horrifying ordeal, she explained: “My reality – 35 weeks pregnant, two broken legs and two broken feet.
“Broke more bones than I even knew you had in your feet and I’ll forever be setting off metal detectors at airports.
“Three surgeries later, the healing process is going well. It’s a long, slow process but I'm getting there.”
She continued: “I still have another surgery to get through and there have been hard some pushbacks, unforeseen delays and a lot of pain along the way but the main thing is our little baby is battling through it with me, keeping me going each day, making me more determined and giving me so much strength, more than I ever thought I would have in a situation as difficult as this.”
The Essex star went on to add that she is so proud of how far she has come since that devastating day and thanked her partner Tommy Cole for his continued support.
Clelia gushed: “It would be a dream to be standing up on my feet before our bundle of joy arrives but I just have to take each day as it comes.
“Having never broke a bone in my body or experienced anything even close to the pain and discomfort I've been through, I'm truly proud of myself and my body for how far I’ve come since that day, the worst day of my life.
“Tommy Cole has not only been the most supportive, loving and understanding partner but he’s also had to turn into being my full time carer and I couldn’t get through a single day without him.
“I can’t thank you enough my love Tommy for your unconditional care & love,” she gushed.
The TV personality is due to give birth around the start of October as she prepares to become a mum for the first time this Autumn.
Announcing the tragic news of her mum’s death this week, she said life will “never be the same” after losing her mum in the incident.
She said: “At the end of May myself and my mum were unfortunately involved in an accident, we both suffered terrible injuries.
