It’s been a year since Ree Drummond’s husband Ladd was injured in a scary accident on the family’s Oklahoma cattle ranch. Today, the television chef provided a highly requested update on her longtime love’s recovery.
“Well, here we are one year later, and Ladd is doing great. Thinking back to that bad day in March of 2021, this is pretty remarkable. He’s lifting weights. He’s riding his horse. He’s feeding cattle and doing all the work on the ranch he always did,” Ree wrote in a blogpost.
Why is Ladd not on Pioneer Woman anymore?
Pioneer Woman fans will recall that Ladd broke his neck in two places after a head-on car crash with his nephew Caleb as the two were racing to battle a fire that had broken out near the property in March 2021. While one of the fractures was repaired surgically, the second fracture had to heal over time, which put him in a neck brace for a few months, including to daughter Alex’s wedding in May.
