    American Pickers star Mike Wolfe and his girlfriend, Leticia Cline, were recently involved in a car accident in Tennessee on September 12, leaving them with multiple injuries.

    Wolfe shared the news via his Instagram stories on September 13 and mentioned that he and Cline "were involved in a car accident last evening in Columbia, TN. By the grace of God, we're both safe and okay."

    Cline, a model and entrepreneur who runs The Ace Coffee Co., was airlifted to Vanderbilt Hospital, where she is currently "receiving the very best care," according to her company's Instagram account.

    The post was accompanied by pictures of their vintage blue car with significant front-end damage.

    While giving an update about their health, Wofle said:

    "We are both receiving excellent care and while Leticia is still in the hospital, she is expected to make a full recovery. Thank you for respecting our privacy at this time and we appreciate all of your love & prayers. God bless."

    Meanwhile, in a subsequent post, Cline shared that her mouth will be "wired shut" and that she suffered multiple injuries, including a "broken jaw (in a few places), broken ribs, sternum, collapsed lung, and a lot of swelling on my spine."

    "Hopefully I get surgery tomorrow. Broke jaw (in a few places), broken ribs, sternum, collapsed lung and a lot of swelling in my spine. My mouth will be wired shut I still got my brain and that's all that matters," she wrote.

    On September 14, Laticia stated that she "got up and walked around" in the hospital. She also shared that although Mike is discharged, he is "right by my side." In another picture, Cline is seen sitting upright in her hospital bed, reviewing paperwork.

    "Just because I’m missing a city council meeting doesn’t mean I can’t be involved. It will take more than a crash to stop me from caring about city matters," she wrote.

    According to her IMDB Page, Leticia was born in Glasgow, Kentucky, on October 1, 1978. She reportedly began modeling at the age of 14 and appeared in prominent magazines, including Playboy and Maxim. According to her official website, Cline became fascinated with motorcycles at the age of four when her father "put me on a Honda 50."
