The TV star and author, 35, was left blind in one eye following a horrific acid attack which was orchestrated by her ex-boyfriend over 10 years ago. Last night, mother-of-two Katie Piper told her 860,000 Instagram followers she had ended Mother’s Day in hospital. “The down side of being blind in one eye is no peripheral vision,” she wrote on her story. “Which means you don’t notice the drinking glass by the side of you…” She then shared a picture of her bandaged wrist, saying: “Have to say the NHS staff were so kind and helpful. “We are so lucky to access free medical care when we need it,” she added. “An X-ray and 5 stitches later and I’m going home,” she told her fans. Katie seemed to be in high spirits in spite of the injury, quipping: “Is it really bad that I’m thrilled it was my left hand and not the right one so I can still use my phone?” Prior to cutting her arm, Katie looked to be enjoying Mother’s Day with her family. Earlier in the day, she shared a picture with three more women, saying: “Mother’s Day lynch with the mums in my family. “Now on for a second meal for he Mother on my in-laws’ side!” she added.
