Jennifer Ellison

Jennifer Ellison has had to pull out of a stage role after she suffered a serious knee injury.

The 23-year-old was due to reprise her West End role as Roxie Hart in musical Chicago in Stoke-on-Trent, but dislocated a knee and suffered ligament damage during a dance class last Friday.

'I'm devastated,' she tells the Daily Mirror. 'I was so looking forward to it.'

Doctors say Jen is now having intensive therapy on her knee.
