Jane Moore's eldest daughter was left in grave danger after suffering from a near-fatal accident while on her gap year in Fiji.
The Loose Women star revealed her daughter Ellie had headed off to the tropical location of Fiji and was travelling around the islands in a boat when disaster struck reports the Mirror.
The revelation came as the Loose Women panellists discussed Vernon Kay partying in Ibiza with his daughter, 18.
The 61-year-old said: "I got that call, at least it was her calling.
"So I knew she was alive but I got that call, she went 'Hi mum, what's my medical insurance number?'"
Shocked by the question, Jane added: "'And why would you need to know that anyway?!', she'd got in a boat in Fiji to go from island to island.
"It had capsized, a tourist boat, she'd had to swim for her life, she got onto some uninhabited island but it was surrounded by coral and it's very poisonous.
"So she ended up in the hospital, all her legs were lacerated because she obviously had to get across it to to get on to dry land."
Making light of the horrendous situation, former EastEnders star Nadia Sawalha joked: "You know she's Jane Moore's daughter, 'she swam to an uninhabited island'.
"I don't know what I'd have done but that shows that she's brilliantly brought up, we underestimate them, you prepared her to look after herself."
Jane added: "Everybody was fine, nobody died, everybody got to dry land."
Earlier this week, the panellists leaped to the defence of Brian Szasz, whose step-dad Hamish Harding died in the catastrophic implosion onboard the Titanic submarine Titan.
Following the news that the submarine had gone off-grid, Brian attended concerts and came under fire on social media.
"There's been a lot of talk about the stepson of Hamish Harding, he's had a mixed response from the public," said Charlene before adding: "He's been posting tweets which he has now actually taken down regarding his step-father.
"He had been going to, a concert, he went to a concert, a Blink-182 concert, he had been tweeting about being at this concert but also asking people for their prayers and saying 'this is the way I cope as I want to go and see my favourite band play.'"
