Ruby Rose'S Poolside Drama: A Socal Summer Setback

A Painful Poolside Plunge

It was a splash that didn’t end in a splash zone but rather in a hospital room for Ruby Rose. The Aussie actress, known for her role in "Orange Is The New Black," had an unexpected tumble at her family pool that left her with more than just wet hair. On June 30th, Ruby took to Instagram to reveal the mishap, sharing an eye-watering video of herself slipping from the pool's ledge, ending in a painful side landing.

"RIP to my ribs, and to the rest of my summer. They are broken, multiple," Rose, 40, captioned the video, as "There She Goes" by The La's fittingly played in the background. As fans watched, Rose clutched her side in visible pain before dragging herself poolside.

"Straight to the hospital, did not pass go or collect 200 dollars. That’s your girl!" Ruby quipped in the caption, adding some humor to her otherwise painful ordeal.

Insights and Reflections

Ruby didn't just share the video – she also gave her followers on Threads a deeper dive into the incident. Commenting on her post, Rose noted that she landed "perfectly" on two specific ribs that didn’t fare well in the fall, leaving her breathing into a machine and lamenting like a true Los Angelean would about a rough Monday.

"Please come and take me out. I brought this upon myself," she confessed. The incident adds to an injury list familiar to the "Pitch Perfect 3" star, who previously had to undergo emergency surgery for two herniated discs while performing her own stunts on the "Batwoman" series.

Comparing her new poolside injury to the Batwoman days, she humorously added, "I'm sorry, but what in the f**king dissociation and self-abandonment did I do, to return to work on 'Batwoman,' the day after breaking my rib and neck?"

Looking Forward

After falling into her pool backwards, Rose is now taking a much-needed break. Without a batsuit to contend with, she’s finding solace in good books and recommendations from fans as she recovers. "I've just broken two ribs, falling into my own pool backwards, and you couldn't pay me to put a bra on, let alone stand up," she wrote, showing her trademark humor hasn’t suffered.

For Rose, this incident is just another chapter in her adventurous Hollywood life. She’s looking forward to a swift recovery and is staying connected with fans, who are sending their well-wishes and entertainment suggestions to keep her company during the healing process.
