Ree Drummond Shares Update After Husband & Nephew Are Injured in Truck Crash

Ree Drummond is sharing an update after her husband and nephew were involved in a collision near the family’s farm in Osage County, Oklahoma.

The 52-year-old Pioneer Woman actress took to her Facebook on Thursday (March 11) to thank fans for all their support, while revealing that husband Ladd and nephew Calab are both currently recovering in the hospital.

“I want to thank you all for your prayers for our family. Caleb and Ladd are in the hospital, but we think they will both be okay,” Ree wrote. “As a family we are giving thanks today, knowing things could have been much worse.”

“Thank you all for your love and kindness. It means a lot, ❤️” Ree added.

On Wednesday (March 10) the two responded to a fire while both driving fire trucks. Caleb, 21, was driving his truck southbound down County Road N3660 while Ladd, 57, was driving northbound. It was reported the trucks hit one another “head-on” due to “high winds on a gravel road” that caused visibility to be decreased.

Neither Ladd or Caleb were wearing their seatbelts, and Caleb “was ejected approximately 70 feet from point of rest.”

Caleb and Ladd were responding to one of the many fires that been burning through thousands of acres of land throughout Oklahoma. The flames were reportedly nearing the Drummond farm.

Our thoughts are with the Drummond family at this time.
