Brooke Shields is on the mend after suffering a broken bone in her leg.
The actress and model shared she broke her femur in an Instagram post Sunday that included a video showing her walking with crutches.
“Beginning to mend,” Shields captioned the post. “No matter what your challenge is, make a positive choice, for yourself, to move forward.”
The New York-born Shields, 55, did not disclose how she injured her leg.
Her video showed her following instructions at a medical facility as an off-screen voice advised her on how to walk with the crutches.
“There’s only 20% weight,” Shields says in the video.
Fellow film star Sharon Stone shared her support by offering in the comments section to bring food to Shields, while Marla Maples wrote “Bless” on the post as well.
