Lord Brocket’s entrepreneur son Alex Nall-Cain, 38, seriously injured in freak skiing accident

Lord Brocket’s son and heir has been forced to fly back to the UK for emergency shoulder reconstruction surgery after injuring himself in a freak accident in France.

Entrepreneur Alex Nall-Cain, 38, was in the ski resort of Val d’Isère when he suffered the slip.

Lord Charlie Brocket, 70, who previously starred on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here back in 2004, said: ‘Alex was at the top of the ski lifts and got off to take some photographs.

‘He slipped on some ice and fell on his shoulder so he’s been been flown back for surgery.

‘One expects people to get damaged when they’re skiing recklessly, going flat out, but on this occasion Alex, who’s a much better skier than I am, just slipped.

‘He’s quite a big lad, 6ft 4, and his full weight came down on him.

‘It takes about six months to fix properly, which he accepts, but he certainly won’t be doing any driving for a while.’
