Minnie Driver is in recovery.
The 56-year-old Good Will Hunting actress provided an update on Thursday (August 6), revealing she was involved in a serious car accident in France.
She shared a video in bed wearing a neck brace.
“Hi, guys. Paris update is that I’m actually back in London. I’m sorry about the filter I put on this, but honestly, without it, I just looked appalling. Even the dog wouldn’t look at me,” Minnie began.
“I got into a really bad car accident a few days ago with my friend Ben, and we somehow walked out of it. Well, we didn’t walk out of it, we crawled out of it, but we did get out of it alive.”

“To be very clear, it was not our fault. We were driving on a country road in the middle of France, and a car didn’t stop at an intersection and was going at speed. We just T-boned it,” Minnie revealed.
“I’m fine. I’ve got a sprained neck, and I’m really in shock and sort of cry all the time, but I’m gonna heal. And the reason that I’m not dead, honestly, is the car that we were driving. We were in this little tiny Kia EV2. I’ve never been in a crash before, but, uh, the kind of three-hundred-and-sixty-degree airbags are what saved our lives,” she went on.
“The fact that the entire car didn’t just concertina and crush us is down to the design of that car, which is frankly astonishing. So while this is categorically not a car ad… Can you imagine if that’s what I was doing? I, I want to celebrate, I want to celebrate that car, you know.”
She added in the caption: “Shout out to the van driver who stopped and helped us before the ambulances arrived. Special mention to the car who slowed down took in the scene and drove off without stopping. I guess this is the Dao of the world, the light and the dark. My brain keeps replaying the crash which is very hard but seems to be a necessary part of processing. Weeping too, feels good and helpful. Thank you to my friends, my family, all the people at work and especially my friend Ben and his family. I love you.”
We are wishing the best to Minnie Driver in her recovery.
Just a few months ago, she was seen partying on the set of Emily in Paris for a scene from the upcoming sixth season.
