Mike Wolfe Shared A Photo Of Their Mangled Car
According to a screenshot of the car obtained by People, Mike Wolfe and Leticia Cline appear to be lucky to be alive. The vintage blue car was seriously damaged, and Mike wrote that it had been a rough night, but he believed in the power of prayer and thanked fans, friends, and family for their support.
Leticia Cline thanked the team at Vanderbilt Hospital for taking care of her and Mike Wolfe.
“Accidents like this remind you how fragile life is. We were wearing our seatbelts, but with older cars, the protection is minimal. Things could have been so much worse, and I’m holding on tight to the blessing that they weren’t,” she wrote on Facebook. “To everyone who has called, messaged, prayed, and sent love, thank you. Truly. I may be slow to respond, between the medication and the pain, but please know every single word has lifted me up and kept me going.”

“I hate that you’re so beat up but yes thankfully you’re both still here! I’m glad you’re surrounded by awesome people! Get well quick!!!! Hugs to you all,” a comment reads.
