Jack Fowler has revealed he was rushed to hospital following a terrifying allergic reaction on a recent flight to Dubai.
The former Love Island star took to Instagram as he slammed the airline following the incident which left him breathing through an oxygen mask.
The star explained he was flying with Emirates and claimed he had told the flight attendant several times that he had a nut allergy.
However, despite his warnings he was served a chicken cashew nut curry and within seconds his throat closed up and he began to struggle to breath.
Jack was given five tanks of oxygen and had to administer his Adrenaline Pen (Epi Pen) but confessed he was left with the ‘real possibility of dying on the plane’.
Love Island star Jack Fowler was rushed to hospital following an allergic reaction on Dubai flight and slammed Emirates airline after making them aware of allergy
Detailing the incident, Jack shared numerous photos of himself having treatment oin board, as he wrote: ‘Cant believe I’m having to post this. And I’m posting because people should be aware of the severity of how bad food allergies can be and the complete negligence from @Emirates airline.
‘I recently flew with Emirates Airline where I was given a Cashew Nut. I made my flight attendant aware of my nut allergy twice before being given a chicken curry.
‘I wasn’t given a menu to chose from, instead I was asked directly if I wanted chicken or fish. I opted for the chicken.
‘When I asked for the chicken I told the air-host that I’m severely allergic to all nuts. I was then told that there was no nuts in the chicken curry.
‘When I received the meal I asked the same flight attendant again to make sure, and again was told that it does not have nuts included.
‘Trusting my flight attendant I began to eat the chicken curry. Immediately my throat closed up and breathing became extremely difficult.’
The situation immediately escalated, as Jack continued: ‘I told a flight attendant I couldn’t breathe and if there was nuts in the food.
‘I was told that there were no nuts in the chicken curry AGAIN. It was only when my friend demanded to see the food menu for the first time did I realise it was a ‘Creamy Cashew Nut chicken Curry’.

Once the plane landed in Dubai, Jack received further treatment and was rushed to hospital
Jack asked: ‘What needs to happen for Airlines to take food allergies seriously??’ as he slammed Emirates for their negligence’
He wrote: ”I told the flight supervisor ‘If you don’t land this plane soon, I will die on this plane’. This then lead to the pilot speeding up the journey’
He added: ‘@Emirates it is not good enough. I’m lucky to be able to have a platform to make as many people aware of your complete negligence’
‘This left me with the real possibility of dying on the plane as I knew I needed emergency treatment immediately. I was given five tanks of Oxygen, as well as administering my Adrenaline Pen (Epi Pen).
‘I told the flight supervisor ‘If you don’t land this plane soon, I will die on this plane’. This then lead to the pilot speeding up the journey.
‘Once we landed I was rushed into Dubai airport Hospital where I continued treatment.’
Jack then asked: ‘What needs to happen for Airlines to take food allergies seriously??’ as he slammed Emirates for their negligence.
‘@Emirates it is not good enough. I’m lucky to be able to have a platform to make as many people aware of your complete negligence.
‘You are responsible for your passengers and their safety. Giving a passenger food which they’ve stated TWICE will cause extreme harm is unacceptable.
‘I hope all airlines and cabin crew who come across this post take note. We board your flights and trust the cabin crew to aid us in a safe flight. Take more care.’
MailOnline have contacted Emirates for comment.
