Pip Edward's ex and Ksubi founder breaks his silence about balcony fall that almost ended his life and tore apart his marriage to model after he dragged her into GoFundMe scandal

Daily Mail​2 days ago
Pip Edwards ' ex Dan Single has broken his silence on a horrific accident that left him in an induced coma.
The Ksubi designer was left injured after he fell from a third-story balcony at an upscale Paris hotel in 2017.
The accident saw him plunge several storeys, shattering his legs and leaving him in a coma for eight days.
Dan has revealed how the incident that saw him 'die for ten minutes' was a 'life changing experience'.
'Falling off a fourth-floor balcony in Paris in 2017, dying and then coming back to life, was certainly a life-changing moment,' he told Esquire.

'When you die you will never know if you achieved your dreams or if you got the house or if the business didn't work out – because you are dead.
'It's just finished. It sounds a bit morbid, but I think that has stopped me from being scared or regretting things.'
His ex-wife Bambi Northwood-Blyth, a model and TV presenter, was in the Hotel Grand D'Amour apartment with Dan on March 11, 2017, when he fell 'feet first' from a bedroom window.
Alongside two friends, she was seen rushing to a nearby hospital, where Dan was placed in an induced coma.
A month later, previously supportive fans turned on him, labelling him 'pathetic' for using fundraising website GoFundMe to ask for $250,000 to cover hospital bills.
An anonymous donor said: 'How come you can fund partying, drinking and overseas trips but not your own recovery?'
'I'll give you $5 with the sole intent of telling you what an idiot everyone thinks you are.'
It was later claimed Bambi was 'mortified' about Dan's decision to ask for money, and reports subsequently emerged speculating the pair had split during the fallout.
In 2018, Dan confirmed his split with Bambi on the 12-month anniversary of the balcony fall.
Alongside an image of his estranged wife, he explained: 'When I fell, my hips and pelvis broke in half, and with that our D&B co-dependent relationship broke too.'
'We were no longer joined at the hip. Two people cannot live as one, it's not healthy, you can try but you're really living half a life.'
He also previously dated PE Nation founder Pip, the mother of his 18-year-old son Justice, but they split in 2008 and have remained on good terms.

Rosallion a massive drifter for the Sussex as Field Of Gold jockey confirmed with Colin Keane banned from Goodwood

SUPERSTAR miler Rosallion is a big drifter for next week's Sussex Stakes at Goodwood - as Field Of Gold's jockey was finally confirmed. Richard Hannon's multiple Group 1 winner has gone right out on the Betfair Exchange. 1 He was second-fav for the £1million contest next Wednesday but has been usurped by Aidan O'Brien's Henri Matisse. Rosallion's price on the Exchange has ballooned from 5 (4-1) to 9 (8-1). Hannon had said the 7f City Of York at next month's Ebor Festival could be on the cards. But he also said the 1m Prix Jacques Le Marois (worth around £200,000 more than the City Of York) is a strong possibility too. It's very unlikely he would do both given they are less than a week apart, with the French race on August 17 and City Of York August 23. Rosallion's drift came as William Buick was confirmed for the ride on Field Of Gold, who is already as short as 4-9 for the Sussex. Juddmonte's retained rider Colin Keane - who would have been on the top three-year-old - is banned from Goodwood after breaking whip rules. More to follow.

‘All you need to see' – Ian Wright's heartwarming reaction to England star Agyemang's dramatic goal speaks volumes

IAN WRIGHT was seen celebrating ecstatically after Michelle Agyemang's late equaliser kept England Women's Euro 2025 dreams alive on Tuesday evening. England found themselves 1-0 down to Italy in the 96th minute when 19-year-old Agyemang latched on to a loose ball in the box and snuck it into the net for the leveller. 8 8 8 8 8 England fans around the country erupted at the finish, but it was Wright's reaction that caught the attention of those watching ITV's match coverage. Cameras on the gantry caught the reaction of Wright and his co-presenters during the shocking twist. Wright was overcome with emotion at the late goal, throwing his hands up in the air and screaming towards the pitch. He also found himself jumping arm-in-arm with co-presenters Laura Woods and Karen Carney. One post on X captioned the video: "Ian Wright's reaction to Michelle Agyemang's late equaliser is all you need to see." The touching moment came during his awaited return to ITV's punditry team. It was the first game the ex-Arsenal and England forward had covered since his fallout with fellow pundit Eni Aluko. Aluko alleged during an April interview that Wright was limiting opportunities for female pundits and presenters in women's football. After public backlash, Aluko issued an apology for her comments, but it was one that Wright said he could not accept. Wright has been heavily involved in coverage of the Lionesses in recent years in an attempt to help build support for the women's game. 8 8 8 Football account HLTCO commented on the video of Wright celebrating on X, saying: "The suggestion that Ian Wright has ever been anything but a huge positive for women's football is so wide of the mark it's ridiculous. "He's been championing the sport for yonks; his enthusiasm has brought so many extra eyeballs to it." Chloe Kelly's goal in the dying minutes of extra-time sealed a 2-1 win for England - and led to the players celebrating with pizzas, which fans loved. Viewers will be happy to see Wright back on their screens covering the women's game, with all eyes turning to Sunday's final to see if he will make another appearance and see England defend their title.
