Dylan Efron Breaks Nose During DWTS Rehearsals
Over the weekend, Dylan Efron posted a photo of himself sitting in the hospital, holding an ice pack to his nose as he smiled for the camera with a thumbs-up gesture. As he wrote in the post’s caption, “Broke my nose, but don’t need it to dance.”
“It’s midnight, and I’m at the hospital, because Dani broke my nose,” Efron can be heard saying in a video clip. “We were trying a new move, and I took an elbow right here. It made a really loud crack, so… Not how I wanted to end the rehearsal day, but we’ll be back dancing tomorrow.”
Efron made it clear in the post’s caption that he’s “seriously all good,” adding that his partner Daniella Karagach, her husband and fellow pro Pasha Pashkov, and Pashkov’s Season 34 partner Danielle Fishel stayed by his side after the injury. Efron wrote that it “warms my heart to have friends like them.”
This week, Efron and Karagach are set to perform a Viennese waltz to “Can’t Help Falling in Love (DARK)” by Tommee Profitt and Brooke for Halloween Night. The episode will air Tuesday night on ABC and Disney+.
