Erin then held up her badly bruised hands for her husband to see, with bandages and painful looking green bruises covering both of them.
‘Oh no! You look like an Egyptian mummy,’ Example told his exhausted wife.
‘I feel like one. I think I’ve aged a thousand years,’ she laughed, as tears streamed down her cheeks.

It wasn’t the only injury Erin sustained on the show, after she told Nick Cummins earlier in the episode that something in her left shoulder had ‘jammed’, restricting her movements in her left arm.
Her two young sons, Evander, five, and Ennio, three, then appeared on the video call, prompting Erin to cry even harder.
‘Oh, my babies! Oh, baby, I miss you so much,’ she sobbed.
‘I am so broken, my God,’ she told the 38-year-old English rapper, before adding, ‘Look at my hands!’
After hanging up, Erin took a moment to compose herself before walking outside and leaving base camp one last time.
‘I’ve learnt that the human body can do just about anything,’ she later reflected.
‘I have learnt what my limits are, both physically and mentally. But, ultimately, I feel I’ve really grown as a person in confidence, in pride. I feel like I finally am in control of me.’
