She went on to thank her husband Sylvain for giving her “stylish butterfly stitches”.
Samia said: “Thanks nurse @slongchambon for my très stylish butterfly stitches.. and yep, thank god i have a fringe!!” followed by the hashtags, “#toddlerlife #counttoten #kids”.
Fans rushed to comment on the post with one person writing: “Oh gosh I hope you are OK!”
Another said: “Ouch! Hope it heals up OK, still look gorgeous,” while a third added: “Oh no Samia hope you’re better soon.”
Samia is also a mum to nine-year-old daughter Freya from a previous relationship.
The star’s injury comes just a day after Freya made her TV debut on ITV’s Big Star’s Little Star on Saturday night.
Samia took to Instagram shortly before the show aired to share a snap of herself and Freya backstage.
Clearly bursting with pride, Samia captioned the shot: “Soooo tonight’s the night… It’s been a whole year since we filmed this!
“Catch my little ‘darling’ Freya totally living the dream of embarrassing me on national TV.. I’ll be watching from behind the sofa.”

During the show, Samia ironically admitted she doesn’t like people seeing her without her fringe.
She told host Stephen Mulhern: “I just don’t like anyone seeing me without my fringe, even like Sylvain.
“I’ve got a proper thing about it so yeah, I’ve probably made that quite clear to Freya.”
