American film actress in the spotlight. - Nina Dobrev discusses her recent severe injury as a result of a dirt bike incident.
Actress Nina Dobrev recently opened up on The Talk about her recent motorcycle mishap, saying "I was trying out a dirtbike for the first time but it didn't go well. I don't suggest you try it either." The Vampire Diaries star explained what happened when she attempted to lift the front wheel off the ground while riding, "In a panic, I hit the gas too hard and the wheel slipped. Thankfully, the bike didn't land on me - it could've been much, much worse according to my doctor. But when I landed, all of my weight fell on my left knee, causing it to snap."
Dobrev is currently recovering from the injury and underwent surgery, "I have a large brace, and I'm still unable to walk alone." The actress admitted to injuring her knee, the anterior cruciate ligament, and the meniscus. This is Dobrev's first time appearing in public since the incident, as she hasn't been leaving her house in weeks.
Her daily routine now consists of taking care of her dogs, binge-watching movies, physical therapy, meals, naps, and bathroom trips. She also admitted to being fascinated with the show 'Fargo', "I reached out to my agents saying, 'I'm so hooked on this show, I need to be a part of it.' Unfortunately, they informed me it was too late to audition."
Dobrev initially shared her experience on Instagram on May 20. The post shows a picture of her with a motorcycle and another picture of her lying on a hospital bed. She captioned the post with "This is how things started...and how they stand now." It's worth noting that dirtbikes feature wider tires and are only designed for jumps with the bike.
During this time, Dobrev's boyfriend, former snowboarder Shaun White has been assisting in her recovery. The pair have been together since 2020. Prior to this, she dated her Vampire Diaries co-star Ian Somerhalder.
