Famous country music star Kacey Musgraves has revealed that she broke a rib after falling in Mexico and is currently in severe pain, which has forced her to cancel her plans.
The 36-year-old singer stated in her official social media post that she is experiencing a lot of pain at the moment. Sharing an X-ray image, she wrote on Instagram: “I’m in Mexico and my sixth rib is broken.”
Detailing the incident, Kacey said that it was raining on Wednesday night, and as she was running to grab a towel, she slipped hard on very slippery tiles that she didn’t see.
“I’m lucky I didn’t hit my head, but I suffered a serious injury to the ribs on my left side, which resulted in the fracture of rib number 6.”
