Police give update on Gogglebox star Ellie Warner's boyfriend after he was hit by car

Police have released an update on Gogglebox star Ellie Warner's boyfriend after he was hit by a car in Leeds.

Nat Eddleston was left severely injured and admitted to intensive care last month after being hit by a car during a night out. On Thursday, West Yorkshire Police confirmed they have spoken to the driver during their investigation - confirming to The Sun that "the driver was questioned" after the incident.

The update follows an original statement issued at the time, which read: "The pedestrian remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital and enquiries into the incident are ongoing."

Last month, police confirmed Nat 'remains in a critical but stable condition' after he reportedly suffered a broken neck and two collapsed lungs in the incident on Friday, March 18. Girlfriend Ellie, 31, understandably hasn't appeared on Gogglebox since Nat was rushed to hospital and is set to miss the rest of the season, The Mirror reports.

The Yorkshire-born star has appeared on the award-winning production alongside her sister Izzi since they joined the Channel 4 show in 2015. "Ellie has been told to take all the time she needs - everyone on the show is hoping and praying Nat will be ok," an insider told the Daily Star last month.

"Ellie has been told to take all the time she needs - everyone on the show is hoping and praying Nat will be ok," an insider told the Daily Star last month. Ellie and sister Izzi have become fan favourites with Channel 4 viewers over the years, thanks to their hilarious TV commentary and on-screen dynamic.

Many of their early Gogglebox scenes were filmed at their Yorkshire family home, where eldest sister Ellie still lived at the time. When the coronavirus pandemic begun and the first lockdown was implemented in early 2020, Izzi took a brief break from the show, with Ellie's boyfriend Nat stepping in to cover the star.

Just weeks before the horrifying accident, Ellie declared her love for her partner in a gushing Valentine's Day tribute on Instagram. Sharing a picture of Nat holding up a piece of kebab meat, Ellie cheekily wrote: "Happy Valentine’s Day to my one true loves [heart and laughing emoji]."
