How Lindsey Vonn Plans to Use Met Gala to Showcase Major Step in Her Recovery

Lindsey Vonn has been going through an intense recovery journey since she crashed during the women’s downhill event on Feb. 8 at the Milan Cortina Olympics. The 41-year-old suffered a devastating leg injury and had to be airlifted off the course. She has since undergone multiple surgeries, and nearly lost her left leg. But, her doctors found other ways to repair her complex tibia fracture (among other issues) to avoid the worst-case scenario.

The Olympic gold medalist isn’t ready to talk about her future in skiing, but she’s making other strides in her recovery in the meantime. One of the biggest steps she’ll take, literally, will be on Monday during the Met Gala.
