"Posting a short video to Instagram, Kemp appeared with his hand bandaged and told fans: "Hey guys, just a little message. You might have seen in the papers that I had a terrible accident with a chainsaw, which I did, but it was last week. I'm a lot better now." Kemp later confirmed he was "alright" after grabbing the chainsaw by the blade when it suddenly turned on - a frightening ordeal that saw him rushed to hospital."
"Roman went on to share that his father had texted the family group chat late on Friday night with no explanation. "I just finished work, looked at my phone, and saw a photo of his hand. All his fingers were strapped up, and all he wrote was, 'Yep... Chainsaw!!!'" When Roman and his sister Harley pressed for details, Martin eventually replied: "There was a bit of a branch we wanted chopping down, so I went and got a chainsaw.""
Martin Kemp, 64, injured his hand trimming branches with a chainsaw at his Hertfordshire home during renovation and landscaping work. He posted a short Instagram video showing a bandaged hand and saying he is 'a lot better now.' He later confirmed he was 'alright' after grabbing the chainsaw by the blade when it suddenly turned on and was rushed to hospital. His son Roman described a family group-chat photo showing strapped fingers and recounted Martin's admission that he picked the chainsaw up by the blade. Medical treatment included care for deep cuts and a tetanus shot; Kemp retains full use of his fingers and has returned to gardening.
