The actress was cornering the £100,000 car just yards from her home in Essex when she went off the road during Storm Arwen in November.
The accident happened in the village of Little Sampford in icy conditions around a 90 degree turn on a country road with a 60 mph speed limit.
Sheridan and her ex-boyfriend Alex Lawler were believed to be in the car at the time of the horrific accident that left the mother-of-one with cuts and bruises, The Sun reported.
The collision caused severe damage to the tree’s higher branches, suggesting the car may have been airborne upon impact. It is not known at what speed she was traveling.

A neighbor told the Sun: “Sheridan is so lucky to be alive. It could have been so much worse. Her car got stuck in a tree, it was a really bad accident.
“It could have been so much worse, she was cut and bruised, but it could have been fatal, she was incredibly lucky.
“It was a brand new Range Rover, she hasn’t had it long. It’s almost a miracle she didn’t injure herself more.”
They added: “For the car to actually get stuck in the tree, it must have been driving with some force. She managed to return to the house, then someone called the police.
