Uma Thurman breaks multiple bones in horse riding accident

Actress Uma Thurman broke several bones when she was thrown from a horse.

Thurman, 46, was seen being helped into St Barts restaurant La Plage by her children, with onlookers commenting that the actress "looked like she had hip surgery", reported NewYork Post.

But a representative for the "Pulp Fiction" star said she is suffering following an equestrian accident.

"She was training on a young thoroughbred who got spooked," the spokesperson added.

"She was thrown and broke a few bones."

Mother-of-three Thurman has been a keen horse rider for many years, citing the sport as one of the main ways she maintains her slim figure.
