This Morning legend reveals horrific pictures of hate crime that left family member in hospital

THIS Morning legend Gok Wan has revealed horrific pictures of a hate crime that left one of his 'family members' in hospital.

The 50-year-old took to Instagram to share what had happened to his executive assistant Chris while he was at the Isolation Nation party at Alexandra Palace on August 24.

Gok started his post off by saying: "WARNING - this post contains sensitive and distressing content.

"On 24th August at the Isolation Nation party in Alexandra Palace, one of our family was the victim of a horrific hate crime.

"This unprovoked attack happened to be on my executive assistant, Chris, and resulted in him attending A&E for an x-ray for suspected orbital fracture and stitches.

"The police, after taking a statement from Chris, have deemed this a hate crime motivated by bias against a person's sexual orientation."

The DJ told fans that Chris has been waiting for a crime reference number and for the investigation to get underway.

Gok, who is arguably best known for fashion expertise, started playing around the UK and abroad when his DJ career took off in 2017.

In lock down he performed his own DJ set from his kitchen called Isolation Nation.

The star has been performing other sets ever since.

Gok explained: "Isolation Nation events have always been about bringing people together in a welcoming, family atmosphere, where everyone, regardless of their background, identity or beliefs, can feel safe and appreciated.

"What happened on 24th August goes against everything we stand for and we are all deeply saddened and shocked by this homophobic attack.

"Chris would like to thank the security and events staff at the venue who were incredible at dealing with the assault.

"In light of this incident, we reaffirm our commitment to making Isolation Nation a safe space for everyone.

"Hate has no place in our community, and we will not allow fear to divide us.

"Now more than ever, we must come together to support one another and stand up against bigotry in all its forms."

Many fans rushed to the comments section to share the love.

One wrote: "This sort of thing breaks my heart. 💔."

"I am so desperately sorry to read this. I simply cannot fathom what goes through some peoples minds. I sincerely hope that Chris is on the mend xxx," another added.

A third chimed in: "This is awful!!! 😪. Sending love to Chris."

As well as DJing, Gok also writes, presents and acts.

He regularly appears on This Morning to share fashion tips and share delicious recipes.
