Ruby Rose's summer took a painful turn when she accidentally slipped on her pool ledge and hit her side on a wall as she fell in, breaking multiple ribs.
The 40-year-old shared the incident on Instagram Story, captioning a clip: "RIP to my ribs, and to the rest of my summer. They are broken, multiple." In the video, she clutches her side right after the fall, then jokes: "Straight to the hospital, did not pass go or collect 200 dollars. That's your girl!"
Rose provided more details on Threads, explaining she "landed perfectly" on her right side and broke the bottom two ribs. "Please come and take me out. I brought this upon myself," she wrote with dark humour. "And now I have to breathe into a machine lol."
The injury carries weight given her past. While filming Batwoman in 2019, Rose suffered two herniated discs during a stunt that nearly severed her spinal cord and required emergency surgery. She later reflected on that ordeal: "What in the f--king dissociation and self abandonment did I do, to return to work on batwoman, the day after breaking my rib and neck."
This time, Rose is taking recovery seriously and seeking distraction. "Send good book and show recommendations," she posted, noting that recovery will take "many weeks."
Fans are sending their well-wishes to the Pitch Perfect 3 star as she heals.
