Over the weekend, at a fan convention event for the television series Supernatural, one of the show’s stars, Jensen Ackles, revealed that his co-star, Jared Padalecki, had been caught up in a severe car accident.
“I don’t know if you guys know what’s going on,” Ackles told the crowd at the event. “He was in a very bad car accident. He wasn’t driving, he was in the passenger seat, and he’s lucky to be alive.”
