Joel was injured during rehearsals for last night’s show, and told fans, “Unfortunately due to unforeseen windy circumstances blowing the set onto my head during rehearsals, I won’t be able to present Extra Camp this evening.
“I had seven stitches like a big brave boy and I’ll be back tomorrow. To be honest I’m less worried about my health and more worried that the show will be better without me. Half a day off school to go home and watch Neighbours! Woo!”
Joel also took to his Instagram story to reveal that he had bled all over Scarlett Moffatt’s hoody and passed out when the object hit him… only to wake up to find Joe Swash kissing him!
He revealed, “Thank you for all your concerns. I'm OK, got this cartoon bandage on and I was wearing Scarlett's hoodie, which I got blood all over. Sorry Scarlett, I will wash it!
“I can't actually watch the show because I'm in Australia so let me know what's going on. Joe and Scarlett are the best. Genuinely I fainted and I woke up and Joe was kissing my face.”
An ITV spokesperson revealed, “A freak gust of wind blew over the Extra Camp signpost and it caught Joel on the back of the head.
“He was taken to a hospital in a production car and given seven stitches. The team wish him well and look forward to him returning to the show soon.”
Get well soon, Joel!
