If ever there was a way to get one over on someone who was a dick to you in school, it's to go on to be a mega successful TV star, and queen of both the jungle and nation’s hearts.

And Scarlett Moffatt did just that.

When she was just 11 years old, she was involved in a terrifying bike accident in which she ended up smashing her front teeth on the handlebars. She also developed Bells Palsy from the accident, which left her temporarily paralysed on one side of the face.

After the accident, she ended up being horribly bullied by the other children – and was even allowed to leave school ten minutes early so as to avoid the other children.

Scarlett told You magazine that she bumped into one of her old bullies while shopping in Asda.

"She came up to me all smiling and friendly and told me her two little girls thought she was the coolest mum because we’d been friends at school,’ Scarlett said.

"Usually I’d just smile and walk away. But I had this memory of her coming into school and wearing fake teeth after I’d had my bike accident and doing a really horrid impression of me.

"The whole class laughed and I had to laugh along with them even though I was mortified. I remembered crying my heart out in my bedroom that night.

"So when she used the F-word – the ‘friend’ word – I was shocked. I told her that we’d never been friends and that she’d been a bully who had destroyed my confidence and ruined my time at school.

"I told her I hoped her two daughters would never go through what I’d gone through or have to deal with anyone like her.

"I put down my basket, walked out of there and felt like cheering."
