TOWIE Star Shares Horror Story After Child Rushed to Hospital
Presley was treated and released hours later after the fall, with Jess Wright saying he suffered bruises and soreness but no serious injuries.
On Wednesday, reality star Jessica Wright revealed her four-year-old son Presley was airlifted to Royal London Hospital following a "freak accident" on a bouncy castle at a birthday party last Saturday.
Wright explained that Presley was "catapulted" three meters from the bouncy castle's top, landing face down on a hard wooden floor and leaving him "struggling to breathe" before briefly losing consciousness.
Because Presley has a pre-existing congenital heart condition, the fall caused immense distress for Wright and her husband William Lee-Kemp, who feared potential serious injury from the impact.
Miraculously, medical staff at Royal London discharged the four-year-old just hours later with "no injuries other than a few minor bruises," allowing Presley to return to playing games.
While Wright acknowledged the "traumatising" ordeal "couldn't have been avoided," she plans to be more vigilant around bouncy castles on hard surfaces, citing recent global tragedies involving similar inflatables.
