The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers show that Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke Forrester) revealed she had surgery after three broken bones and a day of horseback riding that went wrong. On Instagram, Lang opened up about a fun outing that led to a terrible accident and a trip to the hospital.
The day before Mother’s Day, Lang joined some friends for what “started out as a beautiful ride.” They intended to go about 40 miles to train for a 50-mile horse race that’s set to happen in June.
Unfortunately, things went awry around the 16-mile mark. Lang decided to give her horse a break, so she got off and headed down a trail.
That trail wound up being too steep and rocky to safely navigate, so Lang tripped on a rock and injured her left foot in the process.
“My ankle and foot dislocated off to the left at a 90 degree angle to my leg,” Katherine Kelly Lang said in her Instagram post. “I pushed it back into place. It was so gross but I had to do it.”
Lang explained that a stranger thankfully called 911 – and her friends were there to take care of her horse and keep her spirits up until help could arrive.
“The ambulance took me to the hospital and the xrays showed 3 broken bones in my ankle,” Lang said. “Had surgery late that night and now have rods, pins, and screws in my ankle.”
Lang isn’t supposed to bear weight on her foot for six weeks, but the show must go on!
The B&B star still plans on going to work later this week and hopes to heal as quickly as possible.
“I am not a happy camper when things slow me down like this. And there is always a lesson to learn.
Not sure what that lesson is yet but will have the time to contemplate #staypositive,” Lang said to wrap up her post.
B&B fans certainly wish Katherine Kelly Lang in her recovery! As other news rolls in, we’ll bring you updates.
