Freddie Flintoff recalls young son’s heartbreaking reaction after horror Top Gear crash
Freddie Flintoff has recalled his youngest son’s heartbreaking reaction to his injuries following his horror Top Gear crash.
The former England cricketer suffered life-changing injuries when the three-wheel Morgan Super 3 car he was driving crashed and flipped on the track at Dunsfold Park Aerodrome in Surrey, back in December 2022.
In his new Disney+ Flintoff documentary, released today (25 April), Flintoff said his three-year-old son’s reaction to his injuries was “heartbreaking”.
He said: “He wouldn't come near me at first. He was frightened of me, frightened of my face, it was heartbreaking. I got PTSD.”
