Karolína Kurková is happy to report that her 12-year-old son Tobin is on the ‘road to recovery’ after undergoing surgery for a broken ankle.
Earlier this week, the model and actress, 38, shared on Instagram that Tobin broke his ankle joint in three places during football practice, resulting in him wearing a cast and using crutches.
‘There’s nothing like the emotions a mother feels when her child gets hurt… especially when you see them afraid and in pain and can’t do nothing to take it away even though you would in a second,’ Kurková confessed in an Instagram post. ‘Thankfully, we are already on the road to recovery.’

The Děčín, Czechoslovakia, native and her husband Archie Drury had just celebrated their 13th wedding anniversary in early September, about a month before their son’s mishap on the football field.
Drury, 52, is an actor and producer, who’s best known to many fans for his roles on NCIS (2003), Swing (2003) and Voices Of Iraq (2004), among many others.
Kurková got her big break into modeling when she appeared on the cover of the American edition of Vogue in September 1999 when she was just 15.
She would make the cover again in February 2001 after moving to New York City when she was 17, and then go on to become among the top earning models in the 2000s.

After living in New York City for about 12 years, the couple found the ‘family-friendly and outdoorsy place’ they were looking for and moved to Miami’s Fisher Island, according to Stars Offline.
Just last year, the catwalk queen revealed how their family dynamic has changed since the arrival of their daughter in April 2021.
‘It’s definitely a different energy,’ the proud momma confessed to People, adding, ‘For me it’s very beautiful and special because she’s like me. … We’re alike. There is that common ground that we have, not something that you can even describe.’
