Pregnant Samantha Mumba shares selfie from car crash
The Irish singer was involved in a 3-car crash just one week before her due date
8-month-pregnant Samantha Mumba had a "serious reality check" on Monday when she was involved in a serious car crash. The 3-car pile-up in LA happened just a week before her first baby is due but luckily the singer-turned-actress and her unborn baby are fine.
"So yesterday was a bad day. 3 car crash that we got the brunt of," she commented on Instagram. "My poor car written off a week before the baby is due.
"Clearly God was protecting us....just so grateful that our little girl is ok and this wasn't any worse. Serious reality check."
Samantha even decided to share a selfie taken while she lay on her stretcher on the side of the road with the emergency services all around her.
Samantha was released from hospital the day after the crash, after being monitored over night, and is now preparing for a less eventful birth.
