EXCLU: The shattered life of the gym-loving guard mown down by ‘X Factor’ influencer in nightclub horror — as ‘insulting’ sentence sparks fury across Britain

Security guard Anoosh Chaichy suffered ‘life-changing injuries’ after being mown down by a Mercedes outside a London nightclub

He was a man who defined himself by his strength. Standing tall outside London’s most exclusive nightspots, Anoosh Chaichy was the picture of vitality—a 56-year-old fitness fanatic from Edgware who spent his days honing his physique in the gym and his nights ensuring the safety of others.

But today, the weights sit untouched. The broad shoulders that once filled out a security uniform are slumped in a hospital bed. In one sickening moment of “pure, unadulterated recklessness,” the future of this hardworking father-figure was crushed beneath the wheels of a high-powered Mercedes.

The woman behind the wheel? Gabrielle Carrington, known to millions of fans as the glamorous influencer RIELLEUK and a former finalist on The X Factor. While she once sang for the nation’s votes, she now stands at the center of a national scandal that exposes a “two-tier” justice system crumbling under the weight of soft sentencing and “influencer privilege.”

A Night of Glamour Turns to Carnage

The horror unfolded in the early hours of a Sunday morning outside Inca, a celebrity hotspot in the heart of London’s Soho. As the champagne flowed inside, a toxic confrontation was brewing on the pavement.

Witnesses describe a “heated, screaming argument” between Carrington and fellow social media star Klaudia Zakrzewska (known to her 258,000 followers as Klaudiaglam). As the row escalated, Carrington reportedly climbed into her black Mercedes, her blood allegedly laced with alcohol.

Standing nearby was Mr. Chaichy. He wasn’t part of the drama; he wasn’t seeking the spotlight. He was simply trying to move an e-scooter to clear the pavement—doing his job, even at 4:30 AM.

Then came the scream that still haunts witnesses: “She is going to run her over!”

The Mercedes lurched forward with terrifying force. In a graphic video that has since sent shockwaves across social media, the vehicle is seen mounting the kerb, mown down Miss Zakrzewska, and slamming into Mr. Chaichy.

‘A Pool of Blood’

The aftermath was a scene of “utter carnage.” While Miss Zakrzewska was left fighting for her life under the chassis, Mr. Chaichy was flung through the air like a ragdoll.

“I saw him slumped against the wall,” one witness told us, visibly shaken. “There was a pool of blood at his feet that just kept growing. He wasn’t moving. He was just… broken.”

Mr. Chaichy, who frequently posted photos of his proudest moments—working security at Martello Hall in Hackney or posing on his motorbike—has seen his world shrink to the four walls of a ward. Doctors have confirmed his injuries are “life-changing.” For a man whose livelihood and identity depended on his physical fitness, the verdict is a life sentence of disability.

The Sentence That Shook the UK

Despite the initial charges of attempted murder, grievous bodily harm (GBH) with intent, and dangerous driving, the legal conclusion to this tragedy has left the public reeling.

Reports from the court reveal that Carrington received a sentence many are calling “a slap on the wrist.” Despite the “shattered limbs and shattered lives” left in her wake, the influencer could be back on her Instagram feed in a matter of months, while her victim faces a lifetime of pain.

“It is an insult to every hardworking person in this country,” says legal campaigner Marcus Thorne. “We are seeing a grim reality in the UK where social media status and expensive legal teams seem to buy leniency. What about the security guard? Who is posting for him?”

A Life Diverted

Today, the contrast could not be more haunting.

• The Influencer: Gabrielle Carrington, 29, once the darling of the Miss Dynamix group on X Factor, will eventually return to her life of brand deals and red carpets.

• The Victim: Anoosh Chaichy, the “gentle giant” of Edgware, faces the agonizing reality that he may never walk unaided again, let alone return to the gym he loved so dearly.

As the dust settles on the pavement outside Inca, the blood has been washed away, but the stain on the British justice system remains. The story of the “influencer crash” is no longer just about a car accident; it is a symbol of a nation where the innocent pay the highest price for the vanity of the famous.

“He was just a man going to work,” a friend of Mr. Chaichy whispered outside the court. “He didn’t have 200,000 followers. He just had his health and his job. Now, he has neither.”
