Arnold and Maria released a joint statement which reads, “A few days ago our son Christopher suffered an accident at the beach. While it has been a very scary week, Christopher is surrounded by his family and friends. He is a brave boy and is expected to make a full recovery.”

Christopher was boogie boarding in Malibu when he had an accident of sorts and suffered a collapsed lung, broken bones and broken ribs.

OUCH!

Maria was luckily with him at the time and was able to get him help. “On behalf of our entire family, we sincerely thank the paramedics and lifeguards who responded so swiftly as well as all the doctors, nurses, emergency room and hospital staff who have cared for our son,” the statement continues.

“They have been extraordinary to him and to us. We thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers and ask for respect and privacy for our family.”

Chris, wishing you a fast and full recovery!
