Eileen Davidson is recovering after a scary fall. The RHOBH alum and daytime soap star, 67, shared on Instagram Friday, September 18, that she slipped while getting out of a cold plunge and fractured her patella. Her post included photos of her swollen knee in a brace, and she told followers she’ll be recovering from surgery for several weeks.
The timing is rough. The injury came right after Davidson was out dancing at Kyle Richards’20th anniversary party for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, where she was clearly having a blast. She also took a moment to thank the EMTs and the team at Los Robles Hospital for taking care of her. The comment section filled up fast with support from Andy Cohen, Lauralee Bell, Camille Meyer, and plenty of fans.
Davidson is known to two very different audiences. Soap fans know her from The Young and the Restless, while Bravo viewers watched her on RHOBH seasons five through seven. Her injury is also a reminder that the cold plunge trend, as popular as it’s become, comes with real risks, especially when you’re climbing out on a wet, slippery surface.
