Allison Langdon dealt ANOTHER blow

Can the host catch a break? - by Catie Powers
  • 17 Feb 2021

The last few weeks have been the thing of nightmares for Today Show host Allison Langdon. After the presenter badly injured her knee and was forced to take a long break from the screen, the 41-year-old has been recuperating at home with her family. But the time away from work hasn't exactly gone to plan for the host.

On Thursday 4th February, Allison Langdon was filming a hydrofoiling segment in Burleigh Heads Queensland when things went horribly wrong and she sustained a nasty injury to her knee.

The host was rushed to hospital and where it became clear that her hosting days were in for a lengthy break.

On Monday, Ally shared a sweet snap of the host reunited with her two children, writing, "So nice to get home to these two."

Since then, the presenter has been radio silent on social media. But the official Today Show account's latest update may have just explained why.

This afternoon, the Today Show instagram account posted a snap of Ally, knee visibly strapped with her crutches lying close by, sitting on a recliner while reading to her two children. A lovely scene, until you look a little closer.

The presenter's dog is also bandaged up around his paw and is donning one of those dreaded cones. It looks like the whole family is in the wars!

The Today Show acknowledged the sad fate of Ally's poor pup in the caption, penning "Look on the bright side Ally, at least you don't have to wear the cone of shame!"

Today fans were quick to comment on the latest update. And, it's safe to say, the sentiments were mixed.

While some viewers were happy to see Ally recovering so that she may make a quick return to her hosting duties, others were glad to see the presenter depart from their screens.

"I am sooooo enjoying Leila McKinnon," one fan wrote, referring to Ally's current Today substitute, "Much more professional and not at all rude. Now to replace Karl and it would be worth watching again."

Ouch, we're not sure what hurts more - the banged up knee or the harsh words.

Ally is sure to be cherishing the extra time with her kids.

According to Ally herself, it will take at least five weeks before she can even put weight back onto her tender knee, meaning it will be over a month before the host returns to regularly scheduled programming.

Let's hope both Ally and her poor, or should we saw paw, pup both make speedy recoveries!
