Shaughna Phillips, a Love Island star, was left horrified after her baby daughter Sofia narrowly escaped being hit by a falling curtain rail at her mother's home in Kent. The incident, caused by allegedly poor workmanship during a window installation, has sparked outrage and raised concerns about accountability in home improvement projects.
Shaughna Phillips , the 32-year-old Love Island star, was left horrified after a near-tragic incident at her mother's home in Kent. Her six-month-old daughter, Sofia, was almost struck by a falling curtain rail while Shaughna was relaxing on the sofa with her children, Lucia, three, and Sofia.
The moment was captured on camera, showing debris flying across the room as the curtain rail crashed onto the couch. Fortunately, Shaughna was cradling Sofia in her arms and managed to move her to safety just in time. The star could be heard shouting in shock, expressing her disbelief at the situation. Shaughna took to social media to share the harrowing clip and explain the circumstances behind the incident.
She claimed that the dangerous situation was a result of poorly finished work done during a window installation in her mother's living room. According to Shaughna, a 'huge crack' had formed from the work, and despite repeated complaints, the issue was not properly addressed. She revealed that an operative had plastered over the crack without fixing it, and even after her mother's complaints, no further action was taken.
Shaughna expressed her frustration, stating that the situation had been ongoing for months, with no accountability taken by the planners, surveyors, or managers involved. The Love Island star also criticized L&Q Homes and the Wates Group, tagging their accounts on her Instagram story. She emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating that the falling debris had come dangerously close to hitting her baby.
In a statement to the Daily Mail, David Lewis, Executive Group Director, Property and Investment at L&Q, apologized for the problems Mrs. Phillips had experienced. He confirmed that their team had visited to secure the curtain pole and ensure safety, with plans to return early the following week for full repairs. The incident has sparked concerns about the quality of work and the responsiveness of companies involved in home improvements
