The 'Coronation Street' star turned 42 yesterday (13.06.18) but appeared to celebrate on some sandy hills, and the actress feared the worst for herself and 21-year-old Emilie Cunliffe.
Emilie wrote on Twitter: "Why did me and @msm4rsh get lost in a jungle of sand Dunes yesterday in the heat for about 40 mins!! [laughing emoji] (sic)"
Kym replied: "I thought we were dead," alongside a number of laughing emojis.
Despite the apparent dice with death, the 'Corrie' star - who plays Michelle Connor on the ITV soap - had a "wonderful day".
She tweeted: "Thank you for all your birthday messages yesterday!!! Had a wonderful day!!! Xxx (sic)"
What's more, Kym received the "best gift" she could have hoped for when her seven-year-old daughter Polly - who she shares with ex Jamie Lomas - described her as the "best mum in the world" in an emotional speech.
In a video clip shared on the star's Twitter, the youngster said: "I just want to say, happy birthday to you, mum, and I hope it's a really good day for you.
"I'm sorry I didn't get you a proper present. I'll get you a proper present another day.
"But you're a wonderful mum, you're a great mum, you're the best mum in the world, and I know I'm happy to have a mum like you."
Kym added the caption: "This is literally the best gift I could have ever received!!!! Her little speech last night at my birthday dinner (sic)"
