Terrified Vicky Pattison breaks down in tears as car bursts into flames just seconds after she gets out
VICKY Pattison was left shaken and in tears tonight as the car she was in burst into flames.
The 35-year-old was in an Uber with her boyfriend Ercan when they narrowly escaped the horror as they escaped the vehicle at just the right time.
Sharing distressing of the car engulfed in flames, a terrified Vicky said: “I actually don’t even know what to about what’s just happened. It was absolutely terrifying.
“We were just driving along in this Uber and Ercan saw that the engine management light was on and then the car started making a really horrible noise on the AI.
“We pulled over, smoke out of the back of the car. The man was just like stay in the car, it will be fine, it will be fine.
“We were on the A1 so we didn’t want to get out and then all of a sudden it just caught fire. It just burst into flames and you can see the whole car has exploded. Absolutely terrifying. The police come running over – ‘get back, get back’.”
She later added: “And thank you Uber for charging me £50 for the privilege of nearly being BBQ’d…oh and literally being so unbothered when I repeatedly called in distress.”
Vicky later made it to the restaurant Sheesh in one piece.
Vicky found fame with outrageous antics on nights out in Newcastle in the early 2010s as part of the Geordie Shore cast.
She got engaged to her former Towie star boyfriend Ercan after he popped the question in Dubai in 2022.
The couple have delayed wedding plans while Vicky freezes her eggs.
