Jess Wright’s four-year-old son was rushed to hospital after a terrifying bounce castle accident, leaving her absolutely terrified
Jess Wright’s son was rushed to hospital after a horrifying bounce castle accident.
Four-year-old Presley – who the former The Only Way Is Essex star has with William Lee-Kemp – was rushed to hospital following the accident on a bouncy castle that left him ‘struggling to breathe’.
Taking to her Instagram stories, she wrote: “Scariest day of my life. Have thanked God every day that he’s ok because it was truly horrendous seeing him in the state he was here & just before.”
Jess said that Presley fell three metres from a bouncy castle and landed on a hard wooden floor. Sharing another post of her little boy lying in her arms, the distressed mum added: “The love I feel for this child physically hurts.
“We had a really scary thing happen at a birthday party on Saturday and he’s been so clingy (even more than usually) ever since. Presley got catapulted off the top of a bouncy castle high in the air and landed face down on hard wooden floor from about three metres high. A noise that silenced the whole party and will haunt me I’m sure.”
She added: “My baby was struggling to breathe and then passed out in our arms until coming to in what felt like ages later but probably about five seconds. To say he was in a state is an understatement as well as mum and dad.
“We were blue lit to the trauma unit in London and on the journey things were being discussed like broken ribs, spine injury and worse. Miraculously when we arrived the show had subsided slightly and pain killers kicked in and a few hours later we were released with no injuries other than a few bruises, a very sore little boy and traumatised parents.”
The mum-of-one said that Presley’s heart condition makes her even more panicky about his safety.
“Like most I’m sure, Will and I are so very panicky around Presley’s safety especially because of his heart condition, so the fact this happened to him, we were beside ourselves,” she said.
“It was a freak accident that couldn’t have been avoided but I will say I’ll be more careful in future if the bouncy castle is on a wooden floor oppose to mates or I guess maybe grass. Thank you to all the families at the party who helped us at the time and were there to support us. We had a lucky escape but I wanted to say the biggest thank you to the paramedics in the @nhsenglandldn ambulance team and the doctors at Royal London Hospital.”
