The former EastEnders star took to Twitter to tell fans she had been involved in a terrifying incident on Friday.

When concerned fans asked if she had reported it, she added: "Yes reported to the police along with the bruises from the bat the guy used on me..."
The actress and former CelebrityBig Brother housemate said she had been left in shock by what happened.

Danniella, who has fought for sobriety after an addition to cocaine, finally divorced her husband Kevin Jenkins earlier this year, six years after their split.
She split from Kevin back in 2014 after 13 years of marriage.
Last August, on his birthday, she publicly asked him for a divorce on Twitter, and the separation is now official.
The mum-of-two had also shared a video, in which she said: "So it's the 23rd of August, which can only mean one thing. A very, very happy birthday to my darling husband Kevin. And I have the perfect present for you. How about we get a divorce?"
She then tweeted: "After 19 years and his constant cheating &him miraculously now suddenly broke after selling his company for millions I think ok to ask for a divorce after 5 years of separating and asking for 1 .
"I don't want and never have wanted money or a house or car just the paper signed."
Despite publicly calling him out, Danniella hailed their relationship as a "long and happy chapter".
Taking to Instagram in July, she shared a screenshot of an email that told her "Your divorce is now complete".
She wrote: "Well that was a long & happy chapter of my life 19years married too Kj and can honestly say not only do we share rhe most amazing child we shared many happy memories laughs lessons and love.
"I married a great man together we over come so much we held each other up & lived a beautiful life, he showed me the world & i couldn’t off chosen a more hardworking happy man to marry.

I have nothing but respect for my ex husband & wish him nothing but love blessings health wealth & happiness as today seals the end off our marriage: #movingontothenextchapter #adulthood #divorced"
