Tuesday, Fox News personality Laura Ingraham updated her Twitter followers on her health status.
Ingraham briefly described the incident that caused her injury:
“Well, it started with a fun day of skiing in Colorado,” she said.
Ingraham’s teenage boys challenged her to a race down the mountain at the conclusion of the day.
“Of course, I took the bait,” Ingraham said.
“I won the race … to the Aspen Hospital ER,” she joked.

The physicians validated her injury-related concerns.
“As I suspected, I blew out the knee,” she said. “Two ligaments — the ACL and PCL — major bummer. I was pretty heartbroken.”
Ingraham praised the medical and physical therapy professionals in Los Angeles, who have helped her get back on her feet following a ski accident in January, as well as her family and friends who have rallied to her aid.
“It’s going to be kind of a long road ahead, of rehab, but we’re going to get there.”
“Thanks to everyone out there for your prayers and your concern — I’m going to be OK, I’m doing fine.”
Her fans responded with wishes for speedy healing.

She even uploaded an Instagram photo of actor and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, whom she saw by chance at a physical therapy visit.
“I’ll be back … on the slopes,” she wrote in the post, making a play on a catchphrase from “The Terminator,” one of the actor’s most famous movie roles. “You never know who you’ll run into at physical therapy.”
Her supporters were less excited about this appearance, with many citing Schwarzenegger’s position on vaccine mandates as the reason.
“The guy who literally said ‘f*** your freedom,’” one follower commented.
“The guy who hates unvaccinated people,” another remarked. “He’s all about health…as his decades of steroid usage will indicate.”
“Speedy recovery,” another wished Ingraham. “But hard pass to that guy.”
And some came right out and warned Ingraham to be careful who she’s spotted with online. “I’m Big fan of yours…. This is not a good look for you Laura…. Just saying. #commiearnold”
