Bachelor In Paradise star Casey Woods has said he has been left unable to walk for months after suffering a foot injury during filming.
The 37-year-old was rushed to hospital in season eight after collapsing in a bar and has since had three operations as a result of his injury. Casey took to his Instagram Stories on Monday to show his foot is still in a cast.
"3 broken bones. 3 operations. 4 months later. 1 sad guy here," he wrote alongside the picture. Monday's episode of Bachelor In Paradise could be seen in the background.
In another picture, he added: "Just to be clear, this is my foot in a cast right now. Tonight. I haven’t walked in over 4 months.
"I think most people don’t how severe the injury was."
During the episode, Casey informed his co-star Brittany Galvin that newcomer Peter Izzo had been saying negative things about her behind her back.
25-year-old Brittany immediately stormed off to confront Peter, 27, with Casey then telling bartender Wells Adams that he felt unwell.
"I feel very dizzy, I think I might pass out," he revealed before falling to the ground.
The show's medics rushed to help Casey and he was driven away in an ambulance after it was established he had suffered a serious injury.
Casey said the journey took an hour, with half of it spent driving on unpaved roads. He was later medically disqualified from the show due to his injury.
Fans immediately took to Twitter after learning about his injury.
One person wrote: "Casey putting his foot in his mouth and immediately having an anxiety attack to the point of passing out was the most relatable moment I've ever seen."
Another added: "Casey stirring the pot, fainting from the drama, and subsequently breaking his ankle."
"As someone that passes out due to anxiety more than anyone should, I feel for you Casey," a third penned.
The Miami-based TV star first appeared in The Bachelor franchise as a contestant on season 18 of The Bachelorette, starring Michelle Young.
Michelle sent him home in week five.
