Elizabeth Hurley has said her nephew “remains in great pain” with a “shocking wound” after he was chased down by a gang and stabbed in south London.

Miles Hurley lost more than four pints of blood after he was repeatedly stabbed in a mob attack in Wandsworth.

Actress Ms Hurley branded the four men who stabbed her nephew "animals" and added she hoped they will be caught before they hurt or even kill someone.

And updating fans on his condition on Saturday, she wrote on Instagram: “Thank you to all who sent such kind messages following the news that my nephew was viciously stabbed last week.

“His wound is shocking, he remains in great pain and he can hardly move, but he is slowly recovering. My sister is an amazing mother and is looking after him and his friend- who was also stabbed.”

A Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed two men were attacked by a group who got out of a vehicle and set upon them in Ascalon Street, Battersea.

He added: “A 21-year-old man was discovered with stab wounds.

“Another man, also believed to be aged 21, was also found suffering from stab wounds.

“They were both taken by LAS to a south London hospital where their conditions are described as not life-threatening or life-changing.

"They are believed to have been attacked by a group of males who got out of a vehicle and assaulted them before fleeing the scene.”

There have been no arrests.
