Sophia Loren Recovering from Hip Surgery After Fall

Italian actress Sophia Loren is recovering from emergency surgery for a fractured hip following a fall in her home in Geneva, Switzerland.

The 89-year-old star suffered multiple fractures after accidentally falling on Sunday morning. On Sunday afternoon, she was operated on with a positive outcome and will now have to undergo a brief period of convalescence followed by a complete rehabilitation.

Loren was set to inaugurate a restaurant bearing her name on Tuesday in the Italian port city of Bari, but the event has been postponed. She was also meant to receive an honorary citizenship from Bari, the southern city where she stepped out of semi-retirement in 2020 to shoot her last movie, “The Life Ahead.”

Loren’s last public appearance took place earlier this month, on Sept. 2, at the Armani “One Night Only” fashion show held during the Venice Film Festival where she was the guest of honor.

We wish Sophia Loren a speedy recovery!
