DOI’s Michelle Heaton is suffering from an eye infection
She has debated wearing an eye patch
Despite her painful ailment, the Liberty X star has still be going to the rink for her DOI skating lessons – but she wobbled over and “winded” herself.
Michelle also knocked her coccyx when she fell on the hard ice, leaving her with bad pain in her tailbone.
Speaking to her Instagram followers, the singer explained: “I’ve had this eye infection now for six, seven days and it’s killing me, so I’ve been learning how to skate with one eye, which has been really interesting… but still managing.”
She added: “I had an epic fall today, I definitely winded myself and my coccyx is not very happy with me, but hey ho. And now I’m back home before I get the kids and I’m looking at my script.”
In another post, Michelle admitted she is experiencing double vision due to her infected eye.
The mum-of-two filmed herself as she got ready for a Liberty X gig at 90s Baby POP in London and spoke about her infection.
Michelle even held up a black eye patch that she had decorated with sequins to wear on stage.
“I’m now getting ready for the gig and as you can see, my eye isn’t getting better any time soon,” she admitted.
“I’ve been bejazzling an eye mask. I don’t know whether to wear it because it’s just ridiculous, it really is.”
But Michelle soon made her decision.
Despite doctors telling her to avoid all make-up, Michelle ditched the eye patch and instead went on stage with heavy, smokey eyes.
