'Batwoman' Injury Came Flooding Back
The 'Orange Is the New Black' star reflected on her previous 'Batwoman' injuries while updating fans on her recovery.
The painful injury also prompted the actress to reflect on the serious health scare she experienced while filming Batwoman several years ago, admitting she's now questioning how she managed to push through the pain at the time.
"I'm sorry, but what in the f------ dissociation and self-abandonment did I do to return to work on Batwoman, the day after breaking my rib and neck?" she wrote. "My rib was killing me!! I couldn't feel my legs or hands, I was in a batsuit!"
Referencing her latest accident, she continued: "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."
The actress ended her update by asking fans to help keep her entertained during recovery, writing: "Send good book and show recommendations this is going to take many weeks."
Ruby Rose's injury update comes months after she made sexual assault allegations against Katy Perry.
Rose's injury comes just months after she accused Katy Perry of "sexually assaulting" her in Australia over 10 years ago.
"Katy Perry sexual assualted [sic] me at spice market nightclub in Melbourne. Who gives a s--- what she thinks," the actress wrote in April.
"She saw me ‘resting’ on my best friend's lap to avoid her and bent down, pulled her underwear to the side and rubbed her disgusting v----- on my face until my eyes snapped open and I projectile vomited on her," she continued.
"I told the story publicly but changed it to be a ‘funny little drunk story’ because I didn’t know how else to handle it. Later she agreed to help me get my US visa. So I kept it a secret," the actress explained. "But I DID tell yall she wasn’t a good person. Instead I got attacked by... everyone."
The singer denied the allegations.
