Talking to the camera from his hospital bed, Sid said: "Hi, everybody, I had an explosion in my face. I'm ok, I'm gonna be ok, but I did have some serious burns to my face and my arms."

Sid also explained that he would be getting an X-ray to make sure he didn't "inhale any flames".

Cataloging his injuries, he added: "I'm singed everywhere. Eyebrows are singed. My mouth is blistered. My arms [are] pretty bad. Both of my arms."

Kelly also took to Instagram and shed light on the incident, saying: "This is why you don't [expletive] with burn piles."

She shared another video of herself sitting in a chair looking exasperated while resting her fingers on her forehead and shaking her head.

Kelly then panned the camera to reveal her son, Sidney playing with toys on the floor, before capturing Sid lying in the hospital bed, covered in bandages and scrolling on his phone.
