He broke his elbow while running from a swarm of wasps.
In August 2021, Bill took to social media and shared his x-rays after a nasty fall.
The TV star explained the details of the accident and shared how he could not get the “elective” surgery he needed to fix the crack due to COVID protocols.
Bill wrote: “Fun fact, I broke my right elbow when I was seven after speeding down a hill on my bike, got so winded I blacked out and awoke bloody and broken.”
He continued: “This time around, nothing nearly as exciting… during an attempt to elude a small swarm of wasps, my head forgot that my legs have never “run” (to or away from anything, before, ever), even when chased.
“And that’s how you plant an elbow on pavers! That was four weeks ago. Since it wasn’t getting better, I went back for another X-ray.”
HEALTH STRUGGLES
The couple, who has dwarfism, have had their share of health struggles.
Bill has a rare variation of skeletal dysplasia called Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia (or SED) and has had more than 20 surgeries in his lifetime.
Jen also has a rare type of dwarfism called Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia Type Strudwick.
She underwent 22 surgeries by the time she turned 18; she has now had over 30.
THEIR BROOD
The pair share two kids: Will, 13, and Zoey, 11.
Although viewers no longer watch them on their family reality show, Jen continues to give glimpses of her family life.
In July, the TV personality shared an adorable photo of her pre-teen daughter.
The tweenager showed off her ears and revealed she had gone to get them pierced.
Jen mentioned: “Growing up so fast…Zoey got her ears pierced.”
