Home and Away star hospitalised with head injury after ’embarrassing’ fall

Home and Away star Tammin Sursok, who portrayed Dani Sutherland on the Australian soap, explained the “embarrassing” mishap which landed her in hospital with concussion

Tammin Sursok was hospitalised after an “embarrassing” accident.

The actress, 40, known for her role as Dani Sutherland on Home and Away, took to Instagram on Thursday (March 28) and revealed that she had concussion after accidentally falling off her bed.

The mishap occurred while the former soap star was attempting to make a comedy clip. The video was mocking newborn-baby photoshoots, with the Pretty Little Liars actress wrapped up in a blanket mimicking babies.

Tammin later posted a snap of herself from her hospital bed wearing a neck brace as she explained how she ended up there. She began: “Concussions can happen doing the stupidest things.

“And when it happens you might have to show or tell the doctor what you were doing. It could be the most embarrassing moment of your life.”

The South African-born star continued: “2: Concussions can happen 24 hours after you do that stupid thing, so watch for symptoms. 3: CT scans are weirdly soothing and when pumped with anti nausea medication can make you nap.”

Tammin went on: “4: When you have small kids the ER is like a mini vacation. 5: Neck braces are good to sleep upright so maybe I’ll take one home for the plane.

She signed off the post: “Thanks for all the well wishes… feeling slightly better. Just a bruised brain and ego. And the scan showed I did have a brain. So that’s good.”

After playing Dani for four years until 2004, Tammin starred as Colleen Carlton on The Young and the Restless. She gained global recognition when she landed the role of Jenna Cavanagh on Pretty Little Liars in 2010. Tammin lives in Nashville with husband of 12 years Sean McEwen and their two daughters, Phoenix, 10, and five-year-old Lennon.
