Kirstie Allsopp has revealed she was airlifted to hospital for surgery after slipping on a steep coastal path in Devon, with her young son Oscar sprinting for help and triggering a major emergency response.
The 55-year-old broadcaster said she was walking back from a birthday beach trip to Welcombe Mouth, near her holiday home Meadowgate on the north Devon coast, when her foot slipped on a muddy patch on the path. She said there was 'a little wait while poor Oscar ran as fast as he could to get help.'
