One fan asked her: ‘Will you ever talk about your accident and what happened?’, to which she replied: ‘I’m not sure. I find it very hard to talk about.
‘Maybe in the future I will but it’s still really raw. Family and friends that know everything I can talk to, but talking about it to someone new and reliving it is so difficult.’
She also told how she will probably never drive again due to her PTSD, after one fan asked if she would ever get behind the wheel in the future.
Clelia said: ‘No, I haven’t been driving and don’t see myself driving for a very long time, if ever. It was really difficult getting into a car again after it happened just as a passenger.
‘I hope one day I will but for now absolutely not. Mostly due to PTSD but also my injuries, I would need to be fully confident with my feet etc.
‘The first time I was in a vehicle after was horrific. Luckily I was taken home from my time in hospital in an ambulance because I still had to be on a stretcher and had to lay down.
‘So that made it easier as there was only one small window to see out of but I couldn’t look. After that I was taken to and from appointments in ambulance transport, I couldn’t physically get into a car either.’
Another fan then asked her if she would ever want anymore kids as she replied: ‘I would love love love another one but when the time is right.
It comes after Clelia revealed that her mother passed away in the horror car crash which took place at the end of May last year
She recently admitted that she may never have the strength to share exactly what happened in the car crash

‘I need to be fully recovered from my injuries, fit and healthy to be able to endure pregnancy. I actually had such a wonderful pregnancy, I was so so lucky in so many ways, but I didn’t get to enjoy it for months onwards so would love to experience it fully & “normally”.
It came after she shared an emotional statement in April, as she marked the first time she has stepped out alone with daughter Cielo Elizabeth since breaking her legs in the car crash.
The reality star a shared heartfelt message on Instagram as she updated fans on her condition.

Sharing a sweet clip on her Instagram page, Clelia captured Cielo as the mother-daughter duo enjoyed the sunshine.

‘I still don’t believe I’ve done it!! Don’t get me wrong, I’m not fully back to normal and I don’t think I’ll ever be like I was before.
‘I’m still in a lot of pain and discomfort, and I can’t walk for long periods but I have to push myself through this for my recovery.’
Reflecting on her challenging journey, she went on proudly: ‘The first few months of Cici’s life I couldn’t even hold her standing up because I wasn’t able to, so for me being able to do this, it’s just such a relief and such a blessing.
‘It’s little things like taking your baby for a walk in the pram that got me down so so much on top of everything else because it’s such a simple everyday thing for a mum to do but when you physically can’t, it’s heartbreaking. For the first time I’m proud of myself.’
The emotional statement left followers in awe of the star, with many fans flooding her with congratulations and supportive messages below the post.
