A woman is still recovering after being stung by the world’s most venomous fish two months ago while on honeymoon. New bride Amy Thomson, 27, was rushed to hospital during her honeymoon with Callum Thomson, 37, in Mauritius in September 2022.
The newlyweds’ holiday was ruined after the incident happened on a snorkelling trip. Amy was told she wouldn’t need to put her sea shoes on as there was nothing dangerous in the water.
Heeding the advice she went into the sea without the shoes, only to be stung by a stonefish, which is one of the most venomous in the world. After initially remaining with the trip for another hour, Amy went to the hotel doctor after she began to experience the most “intense” pain she had ever experienced.
