Rebekah Vardy was raced to hospital after being "thrown" from her horse and "dragged along the ground" in a freak accident.
The WAG reportedly got her foot caught in a stirrup, causing her to fall to the ground before being rushed to A&E for "emergency treatment" on Friday. The wife of Leicester City striker Jamie has broken her heel and fractured her foot, per reports.
Her fall is thought to have taken place near the couple's home in Leicestershire and happened after her beloved horse got spooked. Insiders say the horror incident saw Rebekah spun around in circles as the horse freaked out.

Her foot got caught in the stirrup and she was dragged along the ground while it was spinning in circles."
"Becky was taken to hospital and after X-rays was told she'd broken the heel on her left foot," they told The Sun. Other bones in the foot are fractured too and she's got a bit of ligament damage. Becky is a confident rider but this accident left her pretty badly shaken."

Rebekah is thought to have been given a boot for her foot, similar to that worn by Coleen Rooney during the Wagatha Christie libel trial, an irony she is reportedly "aware of" according to her pal. "Becky is aware of the similarities to Coleen and laughed about it."
Husband Jamie is said to be "taking good care" of her and she's hoping to have her boot removed "in a few weeks". It comes days after Rebekah posed for a cosy snap with a Love Island star amid backlash for her involvement in the Wagatha Christie saga.
She shared a sun-soaked picture of herself and Amber Wise just days on from jetting off on a plane ahead of Coleen Rooney's Disney+ series premiering. Alongside the selfie with Amber, Rebekah wrote: "I [heart emoji] you xxx." Amber then replied: "love uuu," with red heart emojis."
Mum-of-five Rebekah has been thrust into the spotlight following the release of Coleen Rooney : The Real Wagatha Story on streaming site Disney+. However, the 41-year-old seemed to be ignoring the programme and is instead enjoying time with her loved ones.
Rebekah is yet to officially comment on the Wagatha Christie documentary, which details Coleen's efforts to find out who was allegedly leaking stories about her and her family to The Sun newspaper. The 37-year-old wife of Wayne Rooney limited who could see her personal posts in an effort to out the person who was selling stories.
The infamous Instagram post which followed lead Coleen to be dubbed Wagatha Christie in an homage to mystery writer Agatha Christie. And when asked if she hoped Rebekah would watch the show during the premiere in Liverpool, fellow WAG Coleen said: "That's up to her."
