One fan of the show was so unhappy about Charlie cheating on on/off girlfriend Ferne McCann that she glassed the reality TV star in the face when she spotted him at a Mayfair club.
The attack was so serious that Charlie has been left with permanent damage.
“She scarred my face. She smashed me in the face with a glass,” Charlie tells The Mirror.
“I didn’t know I was bleeding until it was coming down my face. Now, I have a massive scar,” the 22-year-old adds.
Charlie is in no doubt that the attack happened because the woman was a disgruntled fan who didn’t approve of Charlie’s cheating antics.
“It had all come out about our relationship – the cheating scandal. And she was obviously Team Ferne,
“You get people who are die hard, and watch it every week. They take it very seriously outside of the show. But this was extreme.”
Luckily for the crazy fan in question she was thrown out of the club before Charlie could even think about reporting her to the police.
“I didn’t press charges because I didn’t see her after that. She just got chucked out of the club,” he reveals.
Charlie and Ferne are very much on (for now) and she admits that one of the major negatives of opening up your love life to the public is being judged by the fans.
“That’s the reality. Me and Charlie get slated by fans. That’s some of the negatives of the show.”
Getting glassed is quite a major negative.
