It’s a moment many can hardly believe and one that’s put Gabrielle in an awfully sticky situation. Videos of the incident show an altercation taking place on the street before the victims were hit by a vehicle. The Metropolitan Police confirmed the arrest on their website. They say that a man in his 50s and a woman in her 30s are in hospital in a life-threatening condition due to that incident. Another woman in her 30s was treated for minor wounds in the hospital.

This unbelievable moment comes just over two months after another fiery altercation turned ugly. Benzino from the reality show Love and Hip Hop Atlanta was allegedly hit by a car following a fight between him and his fiancée, Althea Eaton. He alleged that she showed up in February to confront him with Diamond from Crime Mob.

Gabrielle rose to fame as a member of the girl group Miss Dynamix on The X Factor UK in 2013. The group made it all the way to the final three of the competition. Gabrielle was a teenager at that time, becoming an influencer on Instagram and TikTok following the show.

Emergency crews and police were on hand on Argyll Street shortly after the jaw-dropping incident. Gabrielle is due to make her first appearance at the Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
