Ellie and Nat have been together for a number of years and recently bought their first home together. The family member, who did not want to be identified, said Nat had been hit by a car after a night out in Leeds.
"Nat is in intensive care with a broken neck, broken back, two collapsed lungs and possible brain damage," they said. "He is on a life support machine and all the family and Ellie are obviously very worried for him."
The Sun reports that Ellie is "fearful" that Nat has suffered brain damage following the accident on Friday night. Nat, who is in his 30s, is understood to have been out with friends in a pub in Halton.
West Yorkshire Police today (Sat) appealed for witnesses after a man was hit by a car near to The Woodman Pub in Halton shortly after midnight. The road was cordoned off by officers this morning. It has not been confirmed whether this is linked to the crash which left Mr Eddleston injured.
Nat is understood to have been hit by a white Seat Leon travelling out of the city just after midnight, according to reports.
Ellie, a hairdresser, has appeared on Gogglebox alongside her sister, Izzi, since 2015. She also appears with the couple's dogs, Mick and Madge.
