Ant Anstead recently opened up about his soccer-related injuries in a candid social media post.

“I’ve had enough of October!” Anstead declared in the caption of a photo showing him relaxing shirtless, revealing injuries that include a torn labrum, a detached pectoral muscle, and a torn rotator cuff.

“This month has been tough, with three dear friends receiving shocking diagnoses. It made me take a hard look at my own health, diving deep into research on diet, peptides, body scans, and vitamins,” he shared on Saturday.

“And then, out of nowhere, a freak accident during a soccer game left me with a detached pectoral muscle and tears in my rotator cuff and labrum!”

The 46-year-old TV star further noted that he is now “obliged to rest” as he recovers from surgery.

“So I’m taking it as a sign! And I am going back down the health rabbit hole as I’m in the age group where I need to take this stuff more seriously! And be Healthier and kinder to my body.”

He concluded the post, “Any and all advice greatly appreciated…x 🙏🏻”

Fans of the semi-professional soccer player took to the comments thread to sympathize with the “Wheelers Dealers” host and offer advice.

“Get Well Soon Ant 🤞” one follower wrote, while another added, “🤦‍♂️ heal up buddy. Dang.”

“Healthy 5 -6 days a week. One cheat day. Everything in moderation. Life is short. Enjoy,” a third person advised, with a fourth chiming in, “Stop booze completely. Avoid sugar. Sleep well. And move, a lot.”

The boyfriend of two-time Oscar winner Renée Zellweger — who is also known for his volatile divorce from Christina Haack — made headlines in May for staying at the home of a wealthy divorcee while Zellweger filmed season 5 of “Only Murders in the Building” in New York.

A rep for the TV host told Page Six at the time that nothing romantic was happening between French and Anstead.

“Mr. Anstead is working mostly in the UK, and he has spent some of his limited time back in [Orange County] at his friend’s home,” they said at the time.

“His friend Jules has a separate, detached guest house, and the suggestion that their relationship is anything other than platonic is unacceptable and untrue.”

The TV host and “The Flip Off” star Haack, to whom he was married from 2018 to 2021, are apparently patching up their co-parenting relationship as well — they share son Hudson, 6.

“Teacher conference week… Hudzo is thriving!” Anstead wrote via Instagram in October while warmly referencing his ex-wife.

“I’m gonna give us a pat on the back! We doing a great job with this little chap! Nice work mum x.”
