Back in November, Carrie Underwood fell and broke her wrist. Turns out, she suffered more than a broken wrist. Here’s what Underwood wrote on a message board to her fan club.
“There is also another part of the story that I haven’t been ready to talk about since I have still been living it and there has been much uncertainty as to how things will end up. It’s crazy how a freak random accident can change your life.
“In addition to breaking my wrist, I somehow managed to injure my face as well. I’ll spare you the gruesome details, but when I came out of surgery the night of my fall, the doctor told [Underwood’s husband] Mike that he had put between 40 and 50 stitches in.”
Underwood went on to say that she may not look “quite the same” after the incident.
Underwood has shared only one recent photo of herself since the accident. As you can see, she’s not exactly ready to let her face be seen.
I’m sure Carrie is still beautiful. It is sad that she feels she has to hide her face from the public. I guess when you’re used to looking perfect at every turn, one little mark would scare you off from wanting to show your face.
Underwood finished her post by expressing her gratitude and hoping for a better 2018.
“I am grateful that it wasn’t much, much worse. And I am grateful for the people in my life that have been there every step of the way.
“I am determined to make 2018 amazing and I want to share things with you along the way. And when I am ready to get in front of a camera, I want you all to understand why I might look a bit different.”
We still love you, Carrie. Just learn how to walk a little better in 2018.
