Salma Hayek, 54, reveals she’s sprained her ankle during luxury vacation

Salma Hayek opened up about a recent injury with fans on Instagram as she posted a photo of her sprained ankle.

The Hollywood star, 54, shared an image of herself relaxing on a bed with her foot propped up on a pillow, with an ice pack around it.

‘Nothing like reading a book about #fridakahlo when you sprain an ankle,’ she told 17.7 million Instagram.

Salma famously received plenty of praise for her breakthrough role as the Mexican painter Frida Khalo in the 2002 film about the artist.

Naturally, the Fools Rush In actress still managed to look glamorous even while suffering from her painful injury.

The star had on a light gray dress as she reclined with the book, Frida In America, propped in her hands.

The mom of one didn’t share any details about how she hurt herself but fan were quick to wish the Frida star a speedy recovery under the post.

One wrote, ‘Omg! Feel better!!’, while another added: ‘Hope you heal soon’.

Another wrote: ‘Feel better sweetie’.

Salma – who married French businessman Francois-Henri Pinault in 2009 – hasn’t shared much details about her trip but it’s safe to assume she’s enjoying a sun-filled break with her family.

The actress and her billionaire husband share daughter Valentina, who was born in September 2007.

In an interview earlier this year, the actress hit back at claims she only tied the knot with her businessman husband because of his money.
