Thandiwe Newton Visits The ER For An Injured Foot After Getting Booted From Magic Mike 3
April 23 2022, Published 12:44 p.m. ET
Westworld star Thandiwe Newton has been dealing with a lot lately.
Not only is she still reportedly separating from her estranged husband Ol Parker, as well as supposedly losing out on her Magic Mike role and "resisting" rehab at every turn ... but now she's revealed that she's injured her food and had to be taken to the emergency room to get it treated.
The 49-year-old actress took to her Instagram to post a story from the emergency room after supposedly injuring her foot with some glass.
She posted a photo of a young man putting a blanket on an elderly woman with the caption "witnessing tender moment between mother and son." On the bottom of the photo the Crash actress wrote "In ER 'cause I got some stupid bit of glass in my foot ... ouch though."
The post came day after Newton denied claims of her getting booted from a major role in the upcoming Magic Mike 3. It has since been reported that the actress had a heated argument with Channing Tatum and was swiftly replaced by House of Gucci actress Salma Hayek.
Page Six also reported about staff on the set being worried about Newton's health during the production in London with sources claiming that her agent had to fly in from Los Angeles to "smooth things over."
Another source claimed, "Thandiwe had been acting strange on set, she has been very highly strung. Her apparent breakdown caused so much disruption, it became clear she couldn't play the role"
"There is a lot going on in her personal life, she and her husband have separated," they continued. "She seemed so stressed she even brought her two pet rabbits to her hotel for emotional support."
It's been reported the Westworld star has suffering with emotional and family problems after splitting from her 52-year-old husband whom she shares three children with: Ripley, 21, Nico, 17, and Booker, 8.
The actress isn't the only one taking the break-up hard, The Daily Mail posted photos earlier this week showing Parker "alone" in his $2 million mansion in London seen "messy", "shoeless" and "unshaven."
