A Place In The Sun presenter Leah Charles-King has recently shared a frightening incident from her time on the Channel 4 favourite, revealing how she was 'trapped' in a restroom while filming for the show. In a candid moment with her followers, Leah took to social media and posted a clip explaining that it took half an hour before the crew noticed she had gone 'missing'. The footage commences with a shot of the locked door, Leah's voice echoing: "I'm trapped in the bathroom.
Hello." She then turns the camera to her face, explaining: "Seriously I can't get out." Her post was captioned: "This was the luxe property where I got TRAPPED in the bathroom for 30 minutes before anyone even realised I was missing! ! ! ! #aplaceinthesun.
" Fans flocked to the comments section, one person suggesting: "That's your card for Would I Lie To You? sorted." prompting Leah to respond, "Good call! Saving this if I'm ever asked, cos my brain is a sieve." Adding a touch of humour to her predicament, another fan remarked, "That very calm 'hello'" to which Leah humorously replied with three laughing emojis: "I'd be screaming for hourssssssss.
" It comes as Leah previously opened up about her ongoing battle with mental health issues, reports the Mirror . Previously part of the '90s girl band Kleshay, Leah battled severe symptoms that pushed her towards deep despair, struggling with suicidal thoughts and depression. Leah's battle with depression reached a critical point despite being prescribed medication; she nearly jumped from an eighth-floor window until a timely intervention by a friend.
Chatting to the Express, Leah recounted the harrowing experience: "If I didn't get help today, I knew what I was going to do and so I wrote this note and I plucked up the last bit of strength that I had to go into what I believed was my final battle." She added:"I remember standing in this queue in tears - silent tears - and when I got to the front of the queue to reception, I just passed this note across the desk [saying] 'I'm suicidal and I need help now. If you send me home, I'm going to kill myself'.
It was that blunt and obviously, it was all panic stations." You can catch up on A Place in the Sun on Channel 4.
