Mike Wolfe and his girlfriend, Leticia Cline, are recovering after they were involved in a serious car accident over the weekend.
The American Pickers star, 60, and his longtime girlfriend both shared photos on their respective Instagram Stories on Saturday, Sept. 13, showing the damage from a front-on collision they experienced while riding in a vintage blue car.
Cline revealed in a post that her injuries include a “broken jaw (in a few places), broken ribs, sternum, collapsed lung and a lot of swelling on my spine.”
Per the post on her Stories, she said her “mouth will be wired shut” as part of her recovery.

On Sunday, Sept. 14, Cline shared more photos from her recovery at the hospital, including a shot of her walking around in a hospital gown with an IV drip of ketamine for her pain and a few other photos of her in a neck brace that show just how extensive her injuries are.
Wolfe, meanwhile, has been discharged from the hospital but has remained “right by my side,” as his girlfriend said in a post.

The American Pickers star has been dating Cline since 2021, though the two initially kept their romance very private.
On Wolfe’s 60th birthday last year, the writer paid tribute to him with a touching Instagram post, as she called him “my greatest adventure and the home my heart will always seek.”
“If we measured the sunsets, trips we’ve taken, concerts we’ve seen, people’s lives we’ve touched, animals we’ve helped, things we’ve loved then you’d be older than reality could comprehend,” she wrote. “A life well lived is not measured in years, but instead by how many people measure their lives by yours and you have such a beautiful life that over flows with it.”

“I’m just happy I get a front seat for it all. Love you babe. Happiest of birthdays,” Cline ended the post.
