One week later, the American Idol alums reps revealed to PEOPLE in a statement that a few days after hosting the CMA Awards, the singer fell on the steps outside of her home on Nov. 10 and suffered “multiple injuries” — including a broken wrist. She also was treated for cuts and abrasions at the hospital on Nov. 12 before being released, according to the statement.

Her husband Mike Fisher, whom she wed in 2010, traveled back to Nashville overnight to be with her.

“Her recovery will take some time and she appreciates all prayers and well wishes,” Underwoods rep said.

Addressing the injury herself on social media, Underwood thanked her fans for their support.

“Thanks so much for all the well wishes everybody…Ill be alright…might just take some time,” she wrote, adding that she was “glad Ive got the best hubby in the world to take care of me.

Unaware of the significance of the photo, Below Deck alum Adrienne Gang posted a photo of herself posing with Underwood at the gym on Dec. 12.

“Just worked out next to @carrieunderwood NBD… she is adorable and so gracious… LOVE HER!” Gang captioned the snap.

After fans pointed out it was the first time Underwood had been photographed since her accident, Gang reassured them that she looked “amazing” and added that she had “no clue” Underwood was injured.

Dec. 27, 2017 — Selfie Time

Towards the end of 2017, Underwood shared her own photo of her face, choosing to keep the majority covered by a scarf.

“When in 5 degree weather, wrap your @caliabycarrie scarf around your neck and face…you keep warm AND look like an awesome winter snow ninja! #WinWin #StayThePath#LetItSnow #BabyItsColdOutside ,” she captioned the snap.

Jan. 1, 2018 — Underwood Reveals She Needed Over 40 Stitches in Her Face and May Look a Bit Different

Seven weeks after the accident, the country singer revealed that in addition to having surgery on her wrist, she required “40 and 50 stitches” to her face, in a post to her fan club members in January

“There is also another part of the story that I havent been ready to talk about since I have still been living it and there has been much uncertainty as to how things will end up,” she wrote in the note, which was been obtained by PEOPLE. “Its crazy how a freak random accident can change your life.”

She continued: “In addition to breaking my wrist, I somehow managed to injure my face as well. Ill spare you the gruesome details, but when I came out of surgery the night of my fall, the doctor told Mike that he had put between 40 and 50 stitches in.”

Adding that although she was on the mend but “not quite looking the same,” Underwood said that she was “grateful that it wasnt much, much worse.”

“I am determined to make 2018 amazing and I want to share things with you along the way,” she concluded. “And when I am ready to get in front of a camera, I want you all to understand why I might look a bit different.”

Feb. 11, 2018 — Family Workout Post

Although Underwood still chose to keep her face hidden from the camera, in February she documented a family filled workout featuring her 3-year-old son Isaiah Michael and husband.

“My boys make workouts fun,” she wrote on social media alongside snaps from their sweat session, before adding that they also made things “a bit less productive.”

“But thats ok,” she added.
