Abbey Clancy Details Dubai Hospital Visit After Acrylic Nail Ripped Off

Clancy described on her podcast a late-night mishap on a New Year trip that led to hours of pain before hospital treatment.

Overview

  • The model said an acrylic nail bent back during a hug, the entire nail came off, and heavy bleeding was followed by severe nerve pain radiating up her arm and neck.
  • Hotel reception would not provide paracetamol or ibuprofen, and a doctor arrived to her room at about 3am and put her on a drip for pain relief.
  • She was taken to hospital around 8am, where clinicians injected and numbed her hand, administered a nerve block, and removed the nail.
  • Clancy called the ordeal embarrassing, noted her phobia of hospitals, and praised the doctor who treated her in Dubai.
  • Peter Crouch said he canceled a planned golf outing after staying up through the night, and friends initially thought he was joking about a broken nail.
