Not Her First Tumble
This isn’t the first time Underwood has taken a fall.
She experienced a more serious accident on the steps outside her home in Nashville in 2017, which resulted in a broken wrist requiring surgery and over 40 stitches to her face.
The former American Idol star opened up about the incident during a 2018 appearance on iHeartRadio’sThe Bobby Bones Show, revealing that she had tripped while taking her dogs out for a final walk of the night.
“I was taking the dogs out one last time, and I just — I tripped,” she explained. “There was one step, and I didn’t let go of the leashes! Priorities! So that’s why my left hand’s fine. But I went to catch myself, and I just missed a step.”
Underwood added, “If I had fallen anywhere else, I would have been perfectly fine. But it was one step that messed everything up.”
Speaking about the fall to Storme Warren on SiriusXM’s The Highway channel, the Grammy-winning artist recalled, “I thought I just busted my lip.
Then I walked inside and took the dog leashes off, took my coat off, and went to survey the damage and was like, ‘Oh, no!’”
“I’m acting very calm about it now, but … it wasn’t pretty,” she added. “I chipped my tooth, but it was just my skin, thank the Lord. Stitches and all that stuff.”
Fansat the festival were quick to express their support and admiration for Underwood’s perseverance.
Many took to social media to praise her for continuing despite the challenging conditions, reaffirming why she is such a beloved figure in themusicindustry.
