Giada De Laurentiis shares an injury update ahead of her upcoming debut on ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars.” Multiple outlets report that the Food Network personality posts about an injury she sustains during rehearsals, describing it as painful and warning that she may lose a toenail.
Deadline and the New York Post both say she provides the update shortly before the show’s premiere, with the injury occurring during rehearsal activities over the weekend. Deadline notes that De Laurentiis communicates with fans while preparing for the Season 35 debut, including that she had a good rehearsal day despite the injury. The New York Post similarly focuses on the more graphic detail of the injury, emphasizing its effect on her ability to dance.
Both accounts agree on the core points: De Laurentiis is injured during rehearsals, she informs fans before the premiere, and she is still set to compete as scheduled when the show begins.
