Zara McDermott said it was ‘vile’

Reality star Zara McDermott was left shocked after a “vile” incident involving an unknown man.

The former Love Island star was out Christmas shopping with her brother’s partner Alice when a random man approached them and spat at them.

Speaking about the incident on Instagram, Zara admitted she would’ve been really shaken up if she was on her own at the time.

She explained to her followers, “Guys, me and Alice are actually really shocked at what just happened.

“We were just getting some last minute Christmas bits just walking down the street, normal normal stuff and this guy out of nowhere runs up to us, spits on us.

“Thankfully it just missed because of the wind and then walked off in the other direction,” she admitted.

Zara continued, “I can’t believe it.”

The presenter said she was relieved Alice was with her because it was a “vile” incident.

“I think I would have been really shaken up if alone! Luckily I was with Alice.”

Many women messaged her following the incident and told Zara they’d experienced the same thing.

“Had so many messages from other people having experienced the same thing in London.

“I’ve heard of men approaching women on the street and hitting them in the face also (a friend of mine had this happen to her).

“It’s completely vile,” Zara stressed.
