Gogglebox 's Ellie Warner declared her 'true love' for boyfriend Nat Eddleston in a sweet social media post before his accident.
Sharing her feelings for her long-term partner, the 31-year-old took to Instagram on Valentine’s Day to gush about her man.
Sharing a picture of Nat holding up a piece of kebab meat, Ellie cheekily wrote: “Happy Valentine’s Day to my one true loves [heart and laughing emoji].”
The hairdresser, who made her debut on the Channel 4 show alongside sister Izzi back in 2015, has reportedly been left devastated by the horrifying accident, which has left Nat critically ill in hospital.
A family member told The Sun on Sunday that he was on life support after being hit by a car in the Halton area of Leeds in the early hours of Saturday morning, and may have suffered brain damage.
Nat is said to have suffered a broken neck and collapsed lungs, and West Yorkshire Police confirmed he was in a “critical but stable condition”.
A picture emerged on Sunday of the scene of the tragic crash, and paramedics can be seen attending to Nat on the road.
“Nat is in intensive care with a broken neck, broken back, two collapsed lungs and possible brain damage,” the family member told the outlet.
“He is on a life support machine and all the family and Ellie are obviously very worried for him,” they added.
Ellie is reportedly “very fearful” following the accident, and is living “hour by hour” as her boyfriend remains seriously ill.
The Gogglebox star has been inundated with supportive messages from her fans and followers have flooded the Valentine’s Day picture of Nat holding the kebab meat with comments sending their love and well wishes.
“Oh my God. Our prayers are with you,” one wrote as news of Nat’s accident broke.
“Thoughts & prayers for a full & speedy recovery,” another added.
“Sending you lots of love and prayers and a speedy recovery stay strong beautiful,” one fan commented, as one wrote: “Sending healing thoughts for both you Ellie & Nat. Stay positive lovely.”
Police are appealing for witnesses following the accident, and according to MailOnline, the car’s windscreen was smashed and the roof was dented in the incident, with the vehicle - a white Seat Leon - continuing for 100 yards before stopping.
