After a terrible mishap in the kitchen, X Factor star Katie Waissel was taken to the hospital.
The 37-year-old celebrity, who became well-known in 2010 during the seventh season of the singing competition, injured her finger while chopping food by mistake.
She published a photo of her bandaged hand on Instagram Stories to inform her fans of the horrific tragedy.
She wrote: ‘Mandolin 1 – 0 Katie.
‘I swear mandolines, or me using one, should now officially be banned! Worst injury ever sustained.’
The culinary utensil is a gadget that is used to quickly slice vegetables with a single blade that frequently functions similarly to a grater.
As she works to transform the reality television business and retrains as a lawyer with an emphasis on welfare, human rights, and liberty within the creative industry sector, Katie has been more outspoken about her activist activities in recent months.
Several participants have opened out about their personal experiences on the X Factor over the past several years, including Jedward and Rebeca Ferguson.
In the same season as One Direction, Katie finished seventh overall in the competition.
But the singer said in 2021 that she had sought treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after having panic episodes and contemplating suicide after being dubbed the “most hated” participant of the series.
‘I am pursuing a civil case of personal injury under negligence, which pertains to duty of care,’ she told The Sunday Times at the beginning of the year.
The three-year personal injury statute of limitations must be waived in order for Katie and her attorneys to pursue their lawsuit against Syco Entertainment.
