The reality star, 28, shared a post on social media and explained that he suffered an allergic reaction on a flight , despite checking multiple times whether nuts were in the food he was being served. Alongside a video that showed him injecting himself with an epipen while on the flight, and several images receiving treatment with oxygen tanks and in hospital, Jack wrote: ‘Can’t 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 breath.
