She wrote: ‘Could have done without an HGV running me off the road but other than that a relatively good start to 2026.’

Lily also took the time to poke fun at how other celebrities, who have been filling their social media pages with photos from a decade ago as part of a viral trend.

She added: ‘Happy to be alive and to not be posting any photos taken in 2016.’

Fans quickly took to the comments to wish Lily well after the horror incident. 

They wrote: ‘Happy you are ok! So scary; Omg the new Porsche; Not the new car?; I love you to death, but that Porsche photo hurt my soul, lol;

‘WHO THE HELL DID THAT TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL CAR!; Just glad that you didn’t get injured!; Hope you’re ok xxx not the best start to the year;

‘Thank God that you’re okay Lily, love you; Thank goodness you are in one piece’. 

Thankfully, Lily seems to have had some positive memories this January despite the road collision.

She shared a picture of herself soaking up the sun in a strapless black bikini and a grey baseball cap. 

In another photo, Lily showed off her £25,000 tan Birkin handbag before carrying a £20,000 red Birkin handbag on top of a suitcase in another photo.

Last month, the singer revealed that she had been ‘shopping like an insane person’ and that she is subsequently receiving treatment for a spending addiction.

She said: ‘I’m just playing with my huge diamond and emerald ring, I bought myself a little present, but it’s not that little.

‘You’ve got to treat yourself and mark the moment. I’m convinced I’m a billionaire. Handbags have been bought, jewels and a car has been bought.’

Among the splurges were a £120,000 Porsche and a £16,500 black Hermes handbag, which she was later seen carrying through the streets of East London.

The singer told how she has been receiving eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for the past four months.

But that did not stop her from decamping to the Caribbean for Christmas.

Lily whisked herself off to the Cayman Islands on a luxury holiday with her two children, Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 12, whom she shares with her first husband, builder Sam Cooper, 47.

She was also joined by close friends, influencer Dylan Mulvaney, 29, and Joe Locke, 22, the star of Netflix’s Heartstopper.

Footage from the holiday showed the singer cruising around the islands in a pink Jet Car, which rents for £300-an-hour.

Lily has found huge success in the music industry recently after dropping her album West End Girl, which is heavily based on the breakdown of her marriage from David Harbour; pictured March 2023 

It comes as Lily is reportedly searching for a lavish new home in her old stomping ground of Notting Hill, as well as the notorious celebrity enclave of Primrose Hill following the success of her album, West End Girl.

The record, which peaked at number two in the charts along with her sell out UK tour is said to have netted Lily a fortune.

A source said: ‘Lily is flashing the cash and she wants to find the perfect home. She is starting afresh after her split and wants the right property for herself and her two daughters. She’s looking at many places to find the right one.’

Friends say that the star, who has a budget of up to £5million to spend, will rent out her former council flat in West London which she bought last year as her marriage to David Harbour began to fall apart.

She shared a Brownstone townhouse in Brooklyn with the Stranger Things actor but moved out amid their marital problems.

It’s quite the contrast to 2016 when she was forced to sell her beloved £4.2 million ‘house of dreams’ in the Cotswolds after she was sued for an ‘extremely large amount of money’ by a former tour manager, meaning she could no longer pay the money owed.

Speaking on her Miss Me? podcast in October, she said: ‘I had a beautiful house, which was my house of dreams in the countryside.

‘And, I did it up so nice, and it was like my life project, I was very proud of it, it was the place where I was going to raise my children.

‘When my tax bill came along, I tried to work out a deal with HMRC in which I can pay them back in instalments, which I would have been able to do, but they said no, so I had to put my house on the market.’
