Roz Purcell has taken to her Instagram to share with her followers that she was involved in a ‘freak accident’, resulting in a hospital visit and a broken leg.
Roz revealed that she had been playing tennis when she took a step backwards and knew something had happened when the pain made her want to “projectile vomit”.
The cookbook author shared that she took a trip to A&E, and revealed this morning that she had broken her fibula, and possibly her foot as she waits to hear if she may need surgery.
“It’s not great. I have broken my fibula and it’s not a clean break it’s a really awkward diagonal break. The bone has shifted so I’m waiting to hear if I need surgery.”
Roz went on to explain that before this, she had been fortunate enough to have never broken a bone before.
“My biggest flex used to be that I’ve never broken a bone or never had a filling now I just have never had a filling. Just to say I’ve got strong ass bones. I’ve had so many falls and s*** before and it’s a miracle I haven’t broken anything. It was just a freak accident. I wasn’t even doing anything.”
She continued, “Listen I’ve been crawling up the side of mountains, rock climbing. I was literally just stepping backwards, I was playing tennis. It was a freak, freak accident.
“They were like, ‘Did you hear it snap?’ I didn’t hear it snap but I knew. You know when you hurt something so badly you feel like you’re going to projectile vomit? That was what it was like.”
Wishing her a speedy recovery!
