A family member told The Sun: "Nat is in intensive care with a broken neck, broken back, two collapsed lungs and possible brain damage."

"He is on a life support machine and all the family and Ellie are obviously very worried for him," the family member added.

It has been reported that the car travelled for a further 100 yards before stopping and it had a smashed windscreen from the incident. Police have asked witnesses to the incident to get in touch.

The tragic incident comes days after Ellie had enjoyed a 70s inspired night out with her sister Izzi. Ellie captioned a slideshow of snaps from the night out: "Fab Abba tribute night last night with the ladies."

In one picture, Ellie and Izzi pose underneath a giant balloon garland while wearing Abba-inspired outfits. Ellie is wearing a glittery jumpsuit with a pair of chunky Dr Marten boots, while mum-of-two Izzi rocked a sequined mini dress and racy knee-high boots.
