The Farmer Wants A Wife star took to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday to detail the shocking incident, which left her beloved dog Moe injured.
She shared her ‘guilt and heartache’ as she told how Moe had spent the night in the vets after the accident and has been left with a fractured pelvis and spine.
‘Yesterday I accidentally ran over Moe! It would have to be one of the most horrifying events of my life to date,’ she explained.
‘He’s in a serious but stable condition thanks to the amazing team at Charles Street Vets in Launceston.
‘I can’t even begin to explain the guilt and heartache I feel right now. Like why didn’t I double check on him.
‘My little dog has been the absolute light of my life the last few months and some days I wouldn’t have gotten out of bed if it wasn’t for him. My happy sweet little boy.’
She continued in another emotional post: ‘My heart is just so tired! He made it through the night.
‘He has a fractured pelvis and a small fracture on his spine, I am sick to my stomach knowing that I am responsible.
‘Thank you for the lovely messages of support, but I just feel like an absolute POS.
‘The complications we are facing now is the nerve damage to his bladder, he can’t pee by himself.’
Her latest heartbreak comes after Claire and her partner Andrew Coleman cancelled their wedding and called time on their romance.
The couple met on the 13th series of Farmer Wants A Wife and confirmed their engagement in March of this year, but had called off their marriage by July.
In a post later shared to Instagram, Andrew said he was ‘proud’ of them both despite their romance not working out.
‘It was exciting and humbling, reminding me of how important love and connection are’ he said of his time on the Channel 7 reality TV show.
‘Amidst it all, one extraordinary woman captured my heart, and we decided to give it a shot. We moved in together, dreaming of a future where our love would grown alongside the farm. It was fast-paced, passionate and fun.’
He continued: ‘But life had other plans. Despite all the love and effort we both gave, sometimes things just don’t work out.
‘Living together brought its own challenges, and we realised our paths weren’t meant to stay intertwined.
‘It’s sad the relationship ended, but I stand tall knowing we gave it our all. Though it didn’t lead us where we hoped, it helped us grow.
‘Its been a huge outlay of heart and soul. And while it’s painful to walk away, we’ve both emerged stronger, wiser, and more attuned to what really matters.’
‘As I move forward, I’m choosing to celebrate the love we shared, the lessons learned, and the strength gained. No regrets, just gratitude.’
The fan-favourite couple found love on the 2023 series when they famously left the show early to pursue a relationship together.
