Traitors Ireland star Gráinne has revealed that she first thought she had been kicked by a contestant when she ruptured her Achilles during last week's show.
Following on from a successful first season of the hit reality show, season two is now well underway with even more murders and banishments during the week.
Unfortunately for Gráinne, she had to exit without being chosen by her fellow contestants after she sustained an injury during Tuesday's challenge.
Speaking to EVOKE, the Sligo native detailed that she had ruptured her Achilles at the start of the challenge.
She said: 'I'd literally taken the first few steps in that run, and the guys were running just behind me because I was the slowest. They said, "Go on, you go first... We'll just go at your pace."
'I'd just taken two steps, and that was it.'
The horse riding instructor confessed she initially thought fellow contestant Kayleigh had kicked her.
'It was agony all right on the ground, but it was fine,' she said.
Gráinne detailed that it was a no-brainer for her to leave the show, as the injury required immediate surgery, along with three months of not putting weight on her feet.
Elsewhere, Gráinne revealed the lies she spun before heading onto the show in order to keep friends and family from knowing her fate.
'I said I'd been contacted by a production company to teach one of the cast members to ride at a basic level for a movie that was upcoming,' Gráinne shared.
'I had to sign a non-disclosure so I couldn't discuss it with anybody and I couldn't have a phone on-site while we were doing the filming because we weren't allowed any access to the media.'
