Reality TV star recounts harrowing experience after car bursts into flames on the A1.

Vicky Pattison, known for her roles on Geordie Shore and I’m a Celebrity, revealed a frightening incident where a car she was in caught fire while travelling on the A1. The 35-year-old shared a video of the blazing vehicle on Instagram, describing the experience as “absolutely terrifying.”

Pattison and her partner, Ercan Ramadan, were in an Uber en route to a restaurant in Essex when the incident occurred. The driver initially instructed them to remain in the car, but the situation quickly escalated as the vehicle suddenly erupted into flames. “The man’s like, just stay in the car, it’ll be fine,” Pattison recounted, adding that, being on a busy stretch of the A1, they were hesitant to exit immediately. However, moments later, the car burst into flames, forcing them to flee to safety.

Pattison shared footage of the blazing car and described the shock of standing by the roadside watching it burn. Despite the ordeal, the couple eventually made it to their destination, with Pattison posting photos of their evening, captioning one: “3 cars, two hours and one near death experience later… and we made it.”

She later confirmed that Uber refunded her for the trip and humorously noted their apology for “nearly turning me extra crispy and charging me for the privilege.”
