Nina Dobrev is recovering in hospital after an apparent biking accident left her in a neck and knee brace.

The Vampire Diaries star announced the news to her 26 million followers on Instagram, sharing a picture of herself posing on an apparent electric bike, while another showed the actress lying in a hospital bed.

“How it started vs how it’s going,” the 35-year-old captioned the post, adding an injured emoji.

Dobrev also shared a selfie of herself in hospital on her Instagram story, before giving fans a health update.

“I’m ok but it’s going to be a long road of recovery ahead,” she said.

While actresses Julianne Hough and Sophia Bush also commented on the post, alongside her Olympic snowboarder boyfriend Shaun White who said: “Just keeping things on brand”.
