Zara McDermott revealed she was knocked over by an electric bike this week.
The former Love Island star explained the incident happened on a busy road and no one stopped to help her.
What’s more, the 26-year-old was left with a large red mark across her face.
Showing off the injury on social media, Zara wrote on Instagram on Wednesday: ‘To the cyclist who was riding an electric bike on the wrong side of the road, knocked me over on a busy main road, swore at me and drove off.’
The TV personality went on: ‘Thanks honestly what is wrong with some people!!! The worst thing is no one came over to help me.’
In the photo, Zara appeared to be riding on a train, suggesting she didn’t need to seek medical assistance after being knocked over.

Late last year, however, the star ended up in hospital after suffering ‘excruciating’ pain in her abdomen.
The influencer shared a snap of herself in a hospital bed hooked up to machines on her Instagram Stories in December and said she had endured an ‘eventful night.’
She explained: ‘Sam [Thompson, her boyfriend] had to rush me to A&E because I had excruciating pain in my abdomen – had a feeling it was a burst cyst on my ovary because I’ve had it before on my other side and it felt similar.
‘I just want to say the A&E team were just incredible. I was seen so quickly and had all tests and scans done within two hours of being there.

‘They wanted to keep me in overnight but after all the pain relief I felt a lot better so I had a few hours in bed before heading back this morning for another few scans.’
Zara added that NHS staff wanted to ensure she hadn’t suffered a ‘twisted ovary’ as she had been ‘presenting all the symptoms’, but revealed it was ‘likely a burst cyst.’
‘Which if you have had it before is excruciating,’ she added.
According to the NHS, an ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that develops on an ovary. They are very common and usually only causes symptoms if they rupture.

In an update on social media an hour later, Zara thanked her followers for their support and well-meaning messages.
