A third follower added: "Absolutely stunning."

Danni's accident occurred in September when the presenter was visiting a newsagent store in London. She was hit by a stolen moped, which was being driven by two women attempting to steal the vehicle before losing control. Danni suffered from a cut above her eyebrow as well as cuts on her face and lip and told her followers she would be absent from social media during her recovery.

Speaking about the incident on her Instagram Stories at the time, she shared a snap of the crashed moped, writing: "Sooooo…. On Saturday I was taken out (on the pavement!) by a stolen moped that lost control. Didn’t see it coming and it’s not looking pretty right now tbh. I’m sure I will be fine in a few weeks but in the meantime, I will be a wee bit quiet on here." 

She later joked that her iPhone couldn't recognise her face, adding: "Looking forward to this not being a thing." At the time, her rep told The Evening Standard: "Danni is continuing to take it slowly and is making good progress to get back to normal."
