Family of woman whose hands were bitten off by 7ft shark reveal how she & husband tried to fight off bloodthirsty beast
A HORRIFYING shark attack has been described by the victim’s family as a “nightmare” after her two hands and a chunk of her thigh were bitten off.
The victim’s family revealed how her husband heroically jumped in the water to fight off the shark until she managed to escape.
The couple were in the middle of a relaxing holiday to the Turks and Caicos Islands when the harrowing experience occurred earlier this month.
Shocking images showed the aftermath of the dreadful ordeal with a crowd holding clothes against the mauled woman’s wounds.
The 55-year-old Canadian woman joined her husband “in only hip deep clear water” when the deadly predator suddenly launched its attack.
The seven-foot beast, which is believed to be a bull shark, bumped into the swimmer’s leg before it started its violent frenzy and bit her thigh, according to the brother-in-law.
He said: “Not satisfied, the shark came back again and when she put both hands in front of her to protect herself, the shark cut off both of her hands, one at mid-forearm and the other at the wrist.”
The victim’s brave husband then jumped between the two and heroically fought off the hungry animal until his wife “walked out of the water and collapsed on the beach”.
She was given first aid before paramedics took her to a hospital, where it was revealed she had suffered life-changing injuries.
The harrowing incident saw the woman lose both of her hands, one reportedly amputated at the wrist and the other up to her forearm.
Her mauled leg however was luckily saved.
The victim’s brother-in-law also revealed that she was flown back to Canada from the British overseas territory by air ambulance for more surgery and recovery.
He added that his brother and sister-in-law’s lives have been “completely altered in the blink of an eye,” and pleaded with people to contribute to the fundraiser.
BULL SHARK FACTS
Bull sharks are found in both saltwater and freshwater. They can live in rivers, lakes, and coastal waters.
Adult bull sharks can grow up to 7 to 11 feet long
Known for their aggressive behaviour, they are considered one of the most dangerous shark species.
They are carnivores, feeding on fish, dolphins, turtles, and even other sharks.
Bull sharks can be found in tropical and subtropical waters worldwide.
They can tolerate freshwater by regulating their salt levels in their kidneys.
The sea animals can swim at speeds of up to 25 miles per hour.
Bull sharks give birth to live young, with litters typically ranging from 1 to 13 pups.
They have triangular, serrated teeth perfect for grabbing and cutting through prey.
Bull sharks are responsible for more attacks on humans than many other species, due to their aggressive nature and tendency to inhabit shallow waters near shorelines.
It had been reported earlier last week that the victim had “engaged” with the shark in an attempt to take photos with it, but this has since been denied by witnesses who claimed that the attack was unprovoked.
Police and local environmental officials confirmed the attack happened at around 10:30 on Friday February 7, in the waters off Thompson’s Cove Beach in central Providenciales.
They said: “Medical personnel and the police were dispatched to the given location in Blue Hills, Providenciales.
“The 55-year-old victim was brought ashore and rushed to the Cheshire Hall Medical Center for Treatment.”
Shark bites in the surrounding waters of the Turks and Caicos Islands are relatively rare.
Last year only one unprovoked attack was reported and was non-fatal, according to Florida Museum of Natural History’s International Shark Attack File (ISAF).
But the waters around the islands are still home to various types of sharks including grey reef sharks, nurse sharks, tiger sharks and bull sharks.
The victim’s family launched a GoFundMe page where you can donate to support the couple.
It comes after another attack earlier this month, when 17-year-old Charlize Zmuda was mauled to death by a shark near Bribie Island, Australia.
A heartfelt vigil was held the day after by her father and was attended by hundreds of mourners.
In January this year, a retired dentist fought off a savage tiger shark by jabbing its eyes after he witnessed the beast maul another man to death in front of him moments before.
Peppino Fappani, 69, was swimming at a resort in Egypt alongside EU diplomat Gianluca Di Gioia when the horror unfolded.
Fappani attempted to save the other man’s life before he tragically died from his bite wounds.
Emmerdale rocked by SECOND shock death after icy limo crash – as a THIRD body is discovered beneath the water
A SECOND shocking death has been confirmed in Emmerdale after the horror limo crash left TEN characters fighting for their lives.
In terrifying scenes, the ladies of the Dales continued their trek from the sinking limo across the plunging ice but not everyone managed to survive.
At the end of the last episode, fans of the ITV soap opera saw Amy Wyatt plunge through the ice as she scrambled to become free as the water quickly solidified over her head.
Amidst her fall came the most disturbing revelation of all – a mystery body lurking under the water.
Amy came face-to-face with it and reacted in sheer panic before being knocked out cold by the icy water.
In tonight’s episode, quick-thinking Tracy managed to break the ice and pull Amy to safety but she was left barely conscious and unable to speak with it clear she was just seconds away from death.
Tracy pulled Amy onto the embankment as she and Vanessa did their best to keep her warm and talking.
In a devastating scene, Amy appeared to look and tug at Tracy’s two bracelets which saw reminded her were made by her daughter Frankie.
It led to a moment of realisation as the body Amy came face-to-face with under the ice also appeared to be wearing a matching bracelet.
Amy was seemingly attempting to make a reference to Tracy about the bracelet.
It heavily hinted that it was Nate Robinson’s body trapped underneath the lake as he was also known to have a bracelet from daughter Frankie.
Viewers will remember that Nate left the Dales in September 2024 and mysteriously vanished without being seen.
He had accepted a new job in Scotland and it appeared that he had just made a low-key exit following his wife’s affair with his uncle.
However, has the limo crash now exposed a shocking deadly secret that Nate was murdered and his body plunged into the bottom of the lake?
Elsewhere, the episode confirmed that Leyla Harding, played by Roxy Shahidi, had in fact sustained a catastrphoc injury.
In Monday’s episode, Leyla could be seen touching her stomach which left her hands bloodied but she kept quiet to the rest of the group.
With just her, Kerry and the body of dead Suzy Merton, inside the vehicle, Leyla revealed she had been impaled by a piece of ice during the crash which had gone through her entire body leaving her bleeding out and barely concious.
It forced Kerry to drag her out of the limo as Leyla became unable to move herself before appearing to be moments away from dying.
As Kerry scuttled herself and Leyla across the ice, the limo sunk beneath the water with Suzy’s body still trapped inside.
Having received a call from Charity, the emergency services finally managed to reach the site of the crash.
Leyla and Amy were quickly transported into ambulances as was Dr. Liam who had been throwing up following a bump to the head in the crash.
He was eventually unconscious as he was transported into the vehicle as was Noah Dingle who Charity smashed into with the limo leaving him fighting for his life.
Amid the devastation, the four ambulances could be seen journeying to the hospital but one of the villagers lost their lives on route.
Having performed CPR, two paramedics looked at each other before a call was made to confirm one patient was “dead upon arrival” at the hospital.
But who of the four will not make it?
Biggest soap stunts
By Conor O’Brien
Soaps are no stranger to dramatic stunts in the storylines. Not only do these moments create a spectacle for viewers, they also fundamentally change characters’ lives.
Here is a look at some of the biggest soap stunts from over the years.
CORONATION STREET
- Tram crash (2010): The ITV soap marked its 50th anniversary with a intense tram crash – and live episode to boot. Overall, the crash and its effects were broadcast across a week in December 2010. Its resulting chaos saw regular characters Ashley Peacock (Steven Arnold) and Molly Dobbs (Vicky Binns) die.
- Richard Hillman tries to kill the Platts (2003): Of all the men unlucky-in-love Gail tied the knot with, Richard Hillman (Brian Capron) is probably the one she regrets most in hindsight. In 2003, murderer Richard tried to kill his step-family: first by gassing them with car fumes and then driving Gail (Helen Worth), Sarah (Tina O’Brien), David (Jack P. Shepherd) and Bethany (Amy and Emily Walton) into a canal.
EASTENDERS
- Queen Vic fire (2010): In September 2010, EastEnders bid farewell to matriarch Peggy Mitchell (Barbara Windsor) as a permanent fixture on the soap – she returned as a guest before the character’s death in 2016. In the build-up to her initial exit, Peggy had trapped crack cocaine-addicted son Phil (Steve McFadden) in the Queen Vic. However, he escaped and set the boozer on fire.
- Bus crash (2017): In April 2017, a total of 11 Albert Square residents had their lives at risk in a terrifying bus crash. The stunt saw a double decker bus – the 764 to Barking – lose control and crash through the Albert Square market before hitting a low-level bridge. Notable passengers at the time included Denise Fox (Diane Parish) and Louise Mitchell (Tilly Keeper).
EMMERDALE
- James Barton’s death (2016): Interestingly about James’ (Bill Ward) death was that it came in a spiral of events. After wife Emma (Gillian Kearney) locked James up in a jealous rage, he escaped and they tussled on a bridge over the bypass. Emma pushed him and James fell into traffic, in turn causing a 12-vehicle pile up, As well as James dying, key characters including Ashley Thomas (John Middleton) and Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry) were injured.

The formula works to blur any enlarged pores or fine lines and creates a base for smooth application, whether that is concealer, foundation or lipstick layered on top.
According to the brand, the best way to apply Miracle Blur is to warm up a pea-sized amount between your fingers before applying it to areas of the face where you want to reduce the appearance of shine and wrinkles.
For deeper scars, apply more product by pressing it into the skin.
A top tip for using another bestseller, Eye2Eye, is to use your ring finger to create a light wash of colour over the lid.
Continue to press on until you’ve reached your desired shade.

Although we’ve yet to review the brand, hundreds of shoppers have, and many of them claim one product in particular is ”really good” for mature skin.
The beauty buy in question is the BFF SPF 30 Cream, which has earned a solid 4.6-out-of-5 rating.
Reviewing the cream, one shopper said: ”I wouldn’t want to be without BFF. I’ve used it since it was launched.

Does Trinny London have sales?
Not often, so when it does, be sure to snap things up quickly.
Next time a sale comes around, we’d recommend getting your hands on the skincare, including the Overnight Sensation Serum which targets wrinkles and loss of firmness, or the Overnight Clarity.
It would be remiss of us not to mention the Miracle Blur – if you haven’t tried it, why not give it a go next time the brand has a sale?
We can’t get enough of a tinted moisturiser and prefer it to a heavier foundation.
With that in mind, it is no surprise we love the BFF De-Stress Tinted Serum, which comes in 12 colours to suit light, medium, and dark skin tones.
To make topping up your makeup throughout the day a little easier, try the Lash2Brow.
When it comes to skincare tools the Plump Up Microneedle Tool is a failsafe must-have, so if it is in stock and on sale, don’t walk – run.

Daytime TV star reveals Brits are missing out on ‘absolute bargain’ mobile phone savings
LESS than half of Brits are willing to buy a refurbished phone – despite 83 per cent believing new smartphones are too expensive.
A poll of 2,000 adults found the main concerns about buying a pre-loved phone include poor battery life (61 per cent), the condition of the device (55 per cent) and the limited or lack of warranty (48 per cent).
Other common worries include fear of potential viruses or malware (43 per cent) or that the phone may have been stolen before being re-sold (34 per cent).
On the flip side, 43 per cent said keeping costs down was a major motivator for buying second-hand as opposed to a brand-new device.
To dispel any myths around smartphones and highlight the potential savings on refurbished tech, iD Mobile and TV icon David Dickinson hosted a unique auction in London where bidders competed for savings on his top picks of quality pre-loved devices.
Bidders looking to score a ‘real deal’ walked away with some of the latest, 12-month warranty-assured, refurbished plans.
Lewis Henry, from iD Mobile, which claims to save customers an average of £250-a-year compared to major networks, said: “Whilst the savings speak for themselves, there are still a lot of myths surrounding refurbished phones.
“Many people assume they’ll be scratched, outdated models in a bad condition, when in reality, there’s often very little difference that can be easily spotted between a refurbished phone and a brand new one.”
The research, carried out via OnePoll, found 63 per cent were unaware you can purchase a ‘Grade A’ refurbished phone, which is a handset restored to an excellent, like-new condition.
But 51 per cent recognise refurbished devices are a more sustainable option than buying new.
It also emerged phone users are holding onto their device for roughly three to four years before swapping out for a newer model.
And encouragingly, two-thirds would be open to trading in their current phone so it can be resold as a refurbished device, helping to extend the life cycle of mobile tech.
David Dickinson, famous for sniffing out a real ‘bobby dazzler’ of a deal, said: “These refurb phones are absolute bargains – top-notch condition, big savings, and no compromise on quality.
“Now that’s what I call a great deal!”
