Sophie Ellis-Bextor has been rushed to hospital following a brutal cycling accident in London.
The singer, 41, was enjoying an evening bike ride on Tuesday along the Thames when she "took a tumble".
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday to share the news with her followers, she wrote: "I ended up in a&e last night after I took a tumble from the tow path down to the side of the Thames on my bike during an evening cycle."
Sophie admitted the photo was "too gory" to share in colour, so switched her selfie to black-and-white.
She was covered in bruises and scratches across her face from the accident, and appeared to be resting in a hospital bed wearing a gown and mask.
"I've put the photo in black and white so it's not too gory. I am ok, just a bit bruised and sore," she continued.
"I want to thank the ambulance crew and the staff at west mid hospital (where I was born, as it happens) for gluing me back together."
Sophie, who was grateful to have been helped as she fell of her bike, thanked the runners by name in her Instagram post.
She added: "I also want to thank Lucas, Colin, Josh and Willow who were 4 runners who stopped and helped @richardjonesface and I when I hurt myself.
"You were so calm, thoughtful and reassuring. Thank you very much. I hope you see this message as I didn’t get your details. You’re all lovely people. Xxxx"
