Surely it's the risk you take when you do thinks like that

Ski jumping. Who would have thought that was dangerous?

bless poor love, blame and claim. but i bet she sign away her life in small print somewhere in the contract.

So u go on a programme to do something that could entail injury u get injured then sue 😐 quick money making scam is what this is.

Surprised 😮 she hasn’t already

She did enter out if choice, didn't she?

Rumour has it, that she's starring in a new ITV reality show called The Crash, where Z-List celebs have to drive around Sandringham whilst avoiding Prince Philip in his Land Rover.

Spent the money......wants more money

Beth, put your hands in the fire you will get burnt, even if you did get paid to do it. Just put it down to experience, and do more risk assessment in your future endeavours.

Why? Didn’t know the risk, ffs

Was ok picking up the appearance fee.

How about deal with it? No doubt the risks were explained before she took part!

😂 some of the comments . If you go on the front line there’s a chance ya gonna get shot !!!! Ya come down a fkin ski jump there’s a chance you gonna break a bone . 🤔🤔 do I do it or not ? Mind the big pay cheque ! Iiiiiii go on then .🙄🙄 ffs use that space between your ears

Lol she is also suing her hubby/partner/one night stand for promising to withdraw. Your OK Beth...nothing is your responsibility.

She will no doubt have signed a disclaimer..

Diddums. At least it's CH4 and it's not a story about years of child abuse being ignored...

Volenti non fit iniuria (or injuria) (Latin: 'to a willing person, injury is not done')

Surely get missgemcollins on the next series? I'd actually break my embargo on watching talentless attention-seeking nobodies on TV just for that.

For all those mpaning and saying she signed a waiver so tough. in any dangerous sport or activity the operators / organisers do not have carte blanche in case anything goes wrong. I imagine that her legal case is based upon Channel4 not acting with due care of her.

compoface

Good.

1 800 BIGCLAIM

I still don't get why any celebrity would think it was a good idea to do this. There are far less risky ways of enhancing careers.

Surely there was a disclaimer in the contract ? The price of 15 mins of fame.

Channel 4 is waycist she is not a POC .BBC is Waycist for reporting it .OMG the world is so Waycist.

She took part in a show with a history of accidents; gets injured and then complains? At what point do we in society take responsibility for the risks and decisions we make?

This might help other celebrities realise that the shit that they do on that show is really, really dangerous. Somebody should have warned her.

Where there is blame, there's a claim. Injurylawyersforyou I do hope she wins and this puts producers of making such utterly sh*t programs in the future..

Surely there was some sort of contract to be signed before she went on the show?

Stupid she only went in the show because she is an attention seeking so and so. Put a cork in that gob of yours love

Where there’s a blame there’s a claim! She knew the risks and signed a waiver. The show should sue her!

Probably best to read the contract before beginning a high risk TV show when you need the money!

👀😬

I think she’s faking, she obviously dived....
