Celebrity SAS star needs surgery after ‘ripping' vulva in one of show's worst injuries
This series of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Win s features one of the most excruciating – and arguably worst ever – injuries in the show's history, with X Factor star Lucy Spraggan revealing she tore her vulva. Singer Lucy opened up about the agonising injury ahead of the programme's continuation this weekend, explaining that she was left bleeding with a rip so severe that she is undergoing reconstructive surgery. The 34-year-old's wound was caused by a harness during a stunt and due to the level of bleeding and intensity of the show, she recalled her 'dignity had gone' when the doctor came over to inspect her. 'I ripped my labia – it was bad,' she told The Sun. 'That's not a common injury. Actually, genuinely, that's never been the same, so much so I'm having some surgery soon to correct it.' Revealing she didn't 'really know even what happened' to cause the tear, Lucy's best guess is simply that the harness 'was tight'. 'I was like: 'This feels really bad. Surely there can't be anything.' And I looked and there was a tear, there was lots of blood and the doctor came over and I turned around because at that point you literally don't care about anything. Dignity has gone,' she added. She also explained that the medic initially thought it was her leg that was bleeding before she corrected them. Horrific as that is, it's also not the only injury the star suffered during filming for the series as she also almost knocked a tooth out, fainted and landed face-first in the sea after attempting to jump from a helicopter into a boat. This left her with a black eye for her wedding day in June 2024 and forced her to have filler from under her eye dissolved after she 'hit the sea so hard my filler migrated to the side of my face'. Previous gruesome injuries from across the show's series include Geordie Shore star Marnie Simpson's breast implant becoming infected, Strictly Come Dancing star Pete Wicks knocked himself unconscious and breaking ribs and former soap star Jennifer Ellison puncturing her spleen. Meanwhile Jake Quickenden was rushed into emergency surgery after tendons in his shoulder were 'ripped off the bone' and politician Matt Hancock infamously suffered from trench foot. The 2025 edition of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins kicked off in dramatic style this month, with two participants quitting during the opening episode. The famous faces were pushed straight into action as they were forced to plunge 26ft into the water and dash towards a speedboat to pick them up. This proved S Club star Hannah Spearritt 's undoing as, looking visibly ill ahead of the second task, she handed in her armband to the directing staff with the words: 'I'm done, I'm sorry, I've reached a point.' Following hot on her heels was TV dancer Louie Spence, for whom the second task – to rescue three hostages from a building before blowing it up with a grenade – pushed him a step too far and he quit. More Trending In the second episode, Love Island contestants Tasha Ghouri and Chloe Burrows, also voluntarily withdrew. Remaining participants being guided through gruelling challenges by the elite team of ex-Special Forces soldiers, Chief Instructor Billy Billingham and his team of Directing Staff (DS) – Foxy (Jason Fox), Rudy Reyes and Chris Oliver – include Traitors winner Harry Clark, Rebecca Loos, Drag Race UK star Bimini Bon-Boulash, former Love Islander Adam Collard and former footballer Troy Deeney. This year's series was shot in Wales, the home of the first phase of SAS selection in real life. Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins continues on Sunday at 9pm on Channel 4. Got a story?

Lucy Spraggan reveals she suffered gruesome intimate injury while filming Celebrity SAS as she faces reconstructive surgery
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins has recorded the worst celebrity injury in the show's history. English singer Lucy Spraggan, 34, has revealed she 'ripped her labia' while filming the gruelling Channel 4 military training series - an ordeal that left her bleeding, in agony, and now facing reconstructive surgery. Lucy, who is close friends with music mogul Simon Cowell, 65, after rising to fame on The X Factor in 2012, believes the injury could have been caused by a harness during a physically demanding task. Speaking to The Sun, she said: 'I ripped my labia - it was bad. That's not a common injury. Actually, genuinely, that's never been the same, so much so I'm having some surgery soon to correct it. 'I don't really know even what happened, I guess the harness was tight. I was like: "This feels really bad. Surely there can't be anything." And I looked and there was a tear, there was lots of blood, and the doctor came over and I turned around, 'Because at that point, you literally don't care about anything. Dignity has gone. It was like: "Oh my God, I thought it was your leg." And I was like: "No, no, it's not!" However, Lucy wasn't the only contestant to suffer brutal injuries on the show. Former TOWIE star Pete Wicks, 36, was knocked unconscious and broke his ribs, while fellow X Factor alum Jake Quickenden, 36, tore muscles in his arm and chest. Meanwhile, former Health Secretary Matt Hancock, 46, reportedly developed trenchfoot and nearly choked to death during one punishing task. However, Lucy's SAS woes didn't end with the harness. During filming, she also nearly knocked a tooth out, fainted, and face-planted into the sea after jumping from a helicopter onto a boat, which left her with a black eye and permanently displaced facial filler. The injury was so bad that it was still visible on her wedding day in June 2024. Lucy also revealed that the force of hitting the water was so strong that it caused her facial filler to shift to one side. By that time, she was experiencing pain all over, and once she returned home, she needed to have the filler dissolved. The interview comes after the Daily Mail reported that Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins stars will reportedly receive their full appearance fee even if they drop out early. The likes of S Club singer Hannah Spearitt and former Love Island star Tasha Ghouri have pulled out of the gruelling Channel 4 show. But according to The Sun, even stars who decide to pack it in themselves still get the full fee they were promised upon signing up. Hannah, who only lasted a minute before bowing out, will still reportedly earn an impressive £10K for her brief appearance. A source said: 'Hannah Spearitt, Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri will all have been paid over £10k - some as much as £20k - but unlike other reality shows, they do get paid if they pull out. 'So even though Hannah only lasted one minute, she'll still get paid over £10k for that minute. 'It's well worth stars signing up even if they don't think they can complete the show just for the payday - it might be embarrassing taking their armband off early in the show, but it's good money!' Daily Mail has contacted Channel 4 and reps for Hannah Spearritt, Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri for comment.
