Lo Bosworth has revealed she secretly suffered a traumatic brain injury.
The Hills star opened up about the incident for the first time publicly via Instagram on Saturday, two years after the injury took place.
Sharing a video of herself stretching, the 34-year-old wrote: “2 years ago in March I suffered a traumatic brain injury I didn’t tell you guys about.”

“I was at a restaurant in lower Manhattan (which shall remain nameless bc accidents happen) and while sitting in a banquet had one of the swinging kitchen doors fall off it’s hinges and on to my head.”
“I was in the hospital and suffered a moderate to severe concussion for months. I took weeks off work and the road to recovery was long,” she explained.
“I remember visiting a friend a few weeks later and feeling totally lost on 3rd avenue and 21st street, not knowing which direction to walk in. I still struggle to recall words from time to time and get my thoughts out coherently 2 years later.”

“THEN, I found out I had mononucleosis on top of it all. Also didn’t tell you guys that. One day I had to put my head down on my desk at work because of sheer exhaustion and fell asleep. I laid in bed for months and months whenever I could while continuing to work full-time at @lovewellness . 🙃”
“Long story short, one of the reasons I’ve been so committed to healthy eating and fitness since the pandemic started is because it took a full year from the head injury + mono for me to be in a place where I could even consider exercising with regularity.”
“This post is dedicated to my health and your health – precious and sometimes taken for granted. If you have it, take advantage of it. All my love,” Lo added.
