Love Island 2017 star Theo Campbell revealed the devastating news that he's lost the sight in his right eye yesterday (Tuesday 27th Aug), following a horror accident in Ibiza involving a champagne cork.
After sharing a snap of himself and his girlfriend, 2018 Islander Kaz Crossley, in a hospital bed as he recovers, Theo was sent a tonne of messages from his celebrity pals and fans on social media.
He wrote, 'Thanks for all the messages and support I’ve got over the last couple days they’re all very much appreciated ♥️! So yeah basically 2 eye surgeries later after a really unfortunate accident, I’ve lost all vision in my right eye as it got split in half, who would have thought a champagne cork would be the end of me.. 🤨. But I still have 1 eye left, looking at the bright side of things. Thanks for flying out to look after me as well babe ♥️♥️♥️ if anyone knows where sells cool eye patches let me know :). #captinhook #thor #fettywap'. [sic]
Now, as the 27-year-old continues to recover from his devastating injury, Kaz has opened up about the traumatic time, praising her man for his 'bravery'.
She wrote, 'It's been a hard 24 hours no one here speaks English and he was taken for hours at one point and I had no clue he was in surgery again. I've stayed in his room over night and just want to take him home. He's so brave and positive hopefully it will get better thanks for your kind messages.
'I hope this will make people aware of the dangers at these parties and to be more careful'. [sic]
Whilst the couple are still out in Ibiza, Kaz has been taking part in a Q&A session with fans, where she was more than happy to answer questions about her boyfriend's accident.
When one fan asked, 'Is he going to be blind forever?', Kaz wrote, 'It's too soon to tell, it's so much damage but he has hope still.' [sic]
Another asked, 'When will Theo be out of hospital?', Kaz said to the camera, "He's been here since Sunday, and we've just saw the doctors again and they said he'd be in at least another two days, because we have to wait for the antibiotics to work."
We wish Theo a speedy recovery!
