John Whaite Says He’s OK After Being Hit by Car

He detailed the crash on Instagram, saying doctors told him his muscle mass likely limited the injuries.

Overview

  • The Great British Bake Off winner and Strictly finalist said the collision happened Tuesday night and he was taken to hospital by ambulance.
  • He described rolling onto the bonnet, striking the windscreen, landing on the road, and crawling to the pavement where a passer-by stayed with him.
  • Hospital staff scanned and examined him, and he told followers he is recovering without serious injuries.
  • He later clarified his use of the word “speeding” was figurative and that he does not know how fast the driver was going.
  • Coverage relies on his Instagram account, with no public details reported about the driver, the vehicle’s speed, or any police investigation.
