Sharleen Spiteri’s daughter was hit by a car after she got distracted staring at Sam Smith
Sharleen Spiteri’s daughter was hit by a car after she got distracted staring at Sam Smith.
The Texas star has revealed that Misty, 18, was rushed to hospital after she was hit by a car outside her college in North London.
The accident occurred because superstar Sam Smith happened to be walking by, and Misty was ‘that busy staring at them that she walked out in front of a car’.
Sharleen, 53, said that the school rang her while they were waiting on an ambulance, and her heart sunk when she arrived at the school to see a car with a completely broken windscreen.
The Inner Smile singer told The Sun: ‘I thought to myself, “Oh my God, what am I walking into here?” Literally my stomach was turning.’
Misty dislocated her shoulder, but otherwise was safe – leading to Sharleen giving her daughter a good talking to.
She said: ‘As soon as I walked in she was just sitting there, and I ran over asking, “Are you ok? Are you ok?” And then I went, “Were you on that bloody phone?”
‘I could have killed her – she got a serious b******ing.’
Sharleen added that Sam was ‘quite a bit away’ so wouldn’t have seen the accident.
The accident happened before lockdown, the day before Sharleen moved from London to Wales.
Misty Kyd is Sharleen’s daughter with ex-partner, magazine editor Ashley Heath, who Sharleen spearated from in 2005, three years after Misty’s birth.
The teenager works as a model and has walked the runway for Miu Miu and Fendi, as well as posing for British Vogue and Pop.
Sharleen went on to marry Welsh chef Bryn Williams in September 2018, with a reception for 500 held in a marquee at their home after a church ceremony in Llandyrnog Denbighshire, Wales
The couple got engaged in 2017, having dated for 10 years.
