Gail said her “scars are superficial” and urged people to be respectful over how others look or how they are.
The caption read: “So to all you wonderful keyboard warriors that said I’m looking old, and saying something was wrong with my face…
“I went to Trainspotting The Musical to support my friends that created this.
“Last week I was knocked over while going down the stairs at a London tube station.
“It was just a wee accident on the stairs. Nothing intentional!
“My scars are superficial and it’s not a problem. It was an accident and it won’t stop me being me.
“Please, from the bottom of my heart, don’t ever be disrespectful to anyone for how they look or how they are.
“Kindness is so invaluable.”
Gail later posted another picture of herself with some make up on, and said: “I’m a wee Scottish warrior. Just always look out for each other. Simple.
“And good concealer!”
