The mom-of-eight, 47, was tasked with falling backwards out of a helicopter into open water but upon landing, Kate knew immediately something had gone wrong.  As you can see in the video below, Special Forces: World's Toughest Test puts celebrities into dangerous challenges which are based on the experiences of an elite team of ex-special forces operatives.

"Water and height are two of my absolute fears," she has now shared but she undertook the task only to awkwardly land on her neck, leading to unbearable pain that she still suffers with today.

"I landed right on my neck and I screamed when I landed because it was absolutely ridiculous pain," she recalled. Kate told People that everyone on the cast encouraged her to speak to the medics but she wanted to power through as her years as a nurse told her that she would be asked to quit the programme.

Kate "braved through it and it just kept getting worse" and she eventually was forced to see a doctor who told her to leave the show.

"I'm so angry," Kate concluded, "I was out and it was done before it even started."
