She then explains how she found herself in the position of having to be treated, by disclosing she had to receive stitches after cutting herself with a bread knife.
After the 28-year-old’s trio of photos portraying her nightmare Monday, Fox’s next story is her verbally explaining the incident.
‘Big cut, four stitches, and it hurts, still a little bit’, Fox said.
‘The first time I’ve ever had stitches.
‘Just very frustrating just considering how avoidable all this could have been’.
‘Could be much worse, but could have you know, just not happened in the first place’.
The incident comes just days after the Olympic star was spotted at the Australian Open with some fellow big names.
Fox watched some matches with boxer Harry Garside and NRLW stars Kezie Apps and Jessica Sergis.

Noemie claimed her first Olympic medal by winning gold in the women’s kayak cross, becoming the discipline’s first ever Olympic champion.
Jessica secured gold in both the women’s kayak single and women’s canoe single in Paris.
Across four Olympic appearances, Jessica has now won six Olympic medals.
