American Pickers star Mike Wolfe recently revealed that he and his girlfriend, Leticia Cline, were involved in a serious car accident.

In an Instagram Stories post on Saturday, September 13, Wolfe, 61, shared the news, along with a photo of a heavily damaged blue car showing a smashed windshield and crumpled hood.

“By the grace of God, we’re both safe and OK,” he wrote, adding that while both are being treated for their injuries, Cline, 46, remains hospitalized but is expected to fully recover.

“Thank you for respecting our privacy at this time and we appreciate all of your love & prayers. God bless," finished the History Channel star.

Wolfe hasn’t disclosed how the crash occurred or the severity of the injuries he and Cline sustained, although the model reposted Wolfe’s update on her own Instagram Stories and added additional images of the wrecked car. Her update included the caption, “Hopefully I get surgery tomorrow. Broken jaw (in a few places), broken ribs, sternum, collapsed lung and a lot of swelling on my spine. My mouth will be wired shut but I still got my brain and that’s all that matters.”

Fans left comments of well-wishes on Wolfe's latest Instagram post, even though the photo was unrelated to the crash.

"How are you feeling?" one fan asked, with another saying, "I hope you’re all okay and that you make a speedy recovery." A third commenter said, "Get well soon- we love you, Mike & Leticia."

Wolfe was previously married to Jodi Faeth for almost nine years. The couple had a daughter, Charlie, who is now 13, before ending their marriage in 2021. He began dating model Leticia Cline shortly after the split.

Season 27 of American Pickers concluded in August, marking the show’s first break since it debuted in 2010. There’s no word yet on when Season 28 of the History Channel show will premiere.
