Mike Wolfe and his girlfriend, Leticia Cline, are on the road to recovery after being involved in a harrowing car accident over the weekend. The 60-year-old star of *American Pickers* and his longtime partner both took to their respective Instagram Stories on Saturday, September 13, sharing haunting images of the aftermath of a head-on collision they endured while riding in a vintage blue car.
In a candid post, Cline detailed the extent of her injuries, revealing a "broken jaw (in several places), fractured ribs, a damaged sternum, a collapsed lung, and significant swelling along my spine." She also disclosed that her "mouth will be wired shut" as part of her recovery process.
The following day, Sunday, September 14, Cline provided a more intimate glimpse into her hospital recovery, posting photos of herself navigating the corridor in a hospital gown, an IV drip of ketamine administering pain relief, and several other images of her in a neck brace, underscoring the severity of her injuries.
Meanwhile, Wolfe, who has since been discharged from the hospital, has remained a steadfast presence by Cline's side, as his girlfriend affectionately noted in a post. The *American Pickers* personality has been romantically involved with Cline since 2021, though the pair initially kept their relationship largely out of the public eye.
On Wolfe's 60th birthday last year, Cline penned a heartfelt Instagram tribute, referring to him as "my greatest adventure and the home my heart will always seek." She continued, "If we tallied up the sunsets, the journeys we've embarked on, the concerts we've attended, the lives we've touched, the animals we've aided, and the things we've cherished, you'd be older than reality could fathom. A life well-lived isn't measured in years, but in how many people measure their lives by yours—and yours overflows with such beauty."
"I'm just thrilled to have a front-row seat to it all. Love you, babe. Happiest of birthdays," Cline concluded her touching message. Prior to his relationship with Cline, Wolfe was married to Jodi Catherine Wolfe for eight years before their divorce in 2021, a year following their separation. The History Channel personality shares a 13-year-old daughter, Charlie, with his ex-wife.
