Oracle of DelphiMariska Hargitay On The Mend
January 13th 2009 05:16
Mariska Hargitay is on the mend after suffering a partially collapsed lung, but will not miss out on any episodes of Law & Order: SVU this season, according to the Emmy-winning actress' rep.
It's unclear if some sort of trauma prompted the injury or if Hargitay suffered a spontaneous pneumothorax, which can occur if more air pressure builds up in a person's chest cavity than is present in the lungs.
Hargitay's rep said, however, that the 44-year-old wife and mom was not injured on the job and was in fact on vacation from SVU, the highest-rated installment in the L&O family, when it happened.
"Mariska is feeling better," read a statement issued by series creator Dick Wolf's company, Wolf Films. "We are looking forward to her quick recovery and return to set."
Hargitay was nominated this year for a Golden Globe for best actress in a TV drama but did not attend last night's ceremony. She won the honor in 2005.
