‘Duck Dynasty’ star has ‘severe’ fall, undergoes surgery

Kay Robertson, the wife of Phil Robertson and “Duck Dynasty” fame, suffered a fall which required surgery.

The recent development was revealed on the latest episode of “Duck Call” podcast.

“Kay had another fall, which, she falls a lot. And it was a substantial injury,” son Jase Robertson revealed.

According to Taste of Country, Jase Robertson and brother Willie Robertson are currently leading their parents’ care.

Jase Robertson also shared that Kay Robertson is using a walker to move around, and had a “pretty rough” surgery after her fall. She’s also continuing to have mobility issues stemming from a broken foot.

Phil Robertson continues to battle Alzheimer’s, a blood disorder and a back fracture.

“The people that around them 24/7, ‘cause obviously we can’t be around them at all times, sent me a very graphic picture when she cut her leg,” Jase Robertson explained. “It was a horror show, it was severe. I was fixing to get up onstage and I see this picture of my mom, I was like, oh man. I was like, ‘Get her to the hospital. I gotta speak.’”

In December, Jase Robertson shared that the family believed Phil was in the early stages of Alzheimer’s.

“Mentally, neither one of them are where they once were,” Willie said on the podcast about his parents.
