Ashley Judd is looking back at her catastrophic injury in the Congo, revealing that she “would’ve bled to death” if she had been transported to Europe. The 53-year-old actress shattered her right leg in four places during a hike in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in February 2021. While talking to Kate Roberts on her podcast, “Sex, Body and Soul” she said she barely survived the 55-hour rescue. “When I got to South Africa my leg didn’t have a pulse and I was hemorrhaging, and if I had been medevaced to Europe I would’ve bled to death,” she said.
