Alli shared footage of her in the back of an ambulance with her 1.2 million Instagram followers and wrote about her nightmare ordeal.

“Sometimes life can take a big turn in the blink of an eye.. for me, 2022 is not off to a great start a broken neck (plus a positive covid test),” she wrote.

Alli told how she dove into a shallow swimming pool and smashed her head on the bottom. She said scans revealed she had two severe fractures in her neck and had to be assessed by a neurosurgeon.

She is now recovering at home in a neck brace, which she will need to wear for the next four months. But despite her injuries, she says she still feels lucky.

“I am extremely lucky to be alive and/or not quadriplegic as it JUST missed my spinal chord (sic),” she wrote.

“The way I see it, four months is a drop in the ocean when it comes to the rest of my happy & healthy life.. as you can imagine, I have been in endless tears and thanking every guardian angel watching over me in the pool that night plus every moment since.”

“To say the least - I have a new lease on life & will be forever grateful that it was not worse!!⁣⁣”

Alli, who previously appeared on I’m a Celebrity and The Masked Singer, was sent well wishes from her co-stars, including Abbie Chatfield and Grant Denyer, who famously broke his back in a rally car accident in 2017.

“I’m so glad it wasn’t worse,” he wrote.

“Having broken my back I know the recovery you’re in for but you have a magnificent state of mind and attitude to life and this will make a profound influence on your recovery.

“I promise you. The meds will be a bit nasty but you’ve got great people around you and you’ll be back to your glowing self in no time. You got this kiddo.”

Chatfield added: “Sending you love angel.”

Signing off, Alli had some advice for her fans, telling them not to dive into water when they’re unsure of its depth.
