Gogglebox: Ellie Warner's boyfriend Nat 'fighting for life' after car accident
Nat was hit by a car in Leeds
Gogglebox viewers have rallied around popular star Ellie Warner after news emerged that her long-term boyfriend Nat is fighting for his life after being hit by a car on Friday night in their hometown of Leeds.
Nat, who has previously appeared on the hit Channel 4 show with girlfriend Ellie, has reportedly broken his neck and back, and suffered two collapsed lungs, with doctors currently monitoring his condition in Intensive Care.
Although Ellie or her sister Izzi are yet to publicly speak about the accident, fans of Gogglebox have been commenting on a recent photo Ellie uploaded of Nat for Valentine' Day last month.
One wrote: 'Thoughts & prayers for a full & speedy recovery. 💕🙏🤞💕', with another adding: 'Oh my God. Our prayers are with you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ 😢😢😢😢😢sending love and best wishes'. (sic)
A third wrote: 'Terrible news 😢 love and hope for you all x', with a fourth commenting: 'Sending you lots of love and prayers and a speedy recovery stay strong beautiful🌹💕🌹xxx'. (sic)
Another then added: 'Praying for you both ❤️ keep strong and keep faith ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏', with another worried fan writing: '❤️ sending all the positive vibes possible... thinking of you all and sending out thoughts for a speedy recovery ❤️🙏❤️'. (sic)
Although an exact date the pair started dating has never been revealed, Ellie did speak about him when she attended The National Television Awards back in 2018, and just last year, the pair revealed they'd moved in together.
The new house, which is now where Ellie and Izzi film their weekly episodes of Gogglebox, is situated in Leeds.
Taking to Instagram last year, Ellie wrote: 'Soon to be our home 🔑 Thank you to everyone who’s followed so far!! We’re looking at exchanging end of May/June time all being well 🤞🏼.
'We’re so lucky the current owners have kept it in immaculate condition so we can move straight in and just do things as we go along! I’m so excited that I’ve more or less kitted the living room out already as that’s gonna be the first room on the list 😆.
'Nat has banned me from looking on Facebook Marketplace 😂😂 but can’t wait to get in and start making this house our home 🏡.' (sic)
With everything going on, it's likely Ellie won't appear alongside her sister on upcoming episodes of Gogglebox, but nothing has yet been confirmed by the show.
We wish Nat a speedy recovery.
